Hello,
Thanks for asking at HCM,
your test reports suggest that you are suffering from tubercular lymph adenitis.
ie tuberculosis of lymph nodes .
You should get physician consult or TB specialist and take medicines . It is completely curable and does not spread. so need not worry at all. FNAC is for very suggestive tissue diagnosis and in your case it is clearly shows granulomatous inflammation ie it points towards tuberculosis , and you have raised ESR and mantoux also 20 mm ie points towards tuberculosis.
In doubt do reply
