FNAC: Smears Show Sheets Of Mature & Reactive Lymphocytes & Histiocytes

Dear Doctors,

Iam Raj from India, I had a swelling in my right cervical node following which, i was asked to get a FNAC done.

Now the reports indicate "Smears show sheets of mature and reactive lymphocytes and histiocytes. Background shows RBC's.

Impression:
1. Reactive Lymphadenitis
2. For Clinical correlation

Please can any one of you help with your advice if this is something to worry, What would be the next steps for treatment?

I have been treated for TB 3 years back and i was under medication for almost a year. I have completely recovered since.

Please can you help with some advice?

Thanks

Raj
