HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, with the right diagnosis and right drugs it will be eradicates very soon and if it is not the infection then it may takes some time for cure, better to use anti-inflammatory drug too and best would be Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
