Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Difficult to comment on the diagnosis with only the examination findings and test results.many history aspects have to be enquired. However the possible causes coming to the mind are Tuberculosis, Cystic disease, Substance related side-effect etc.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:
