What Causes A Lump On The Neck?
I had tb 8 mnths ago . i have gone through tb medication for complete 3 mnths . I can see a lump at right side of my neck . i don t know the reason why this lump is there . At first there was no pain . but now it s like growing every day and I feel heavy at this side and can t move my neck properly . I consulted my doctor and went through needle aspiration but they were not clear with the sample . they advised me to go for thyroid tests . But honestly I don t think this is goitre because this is at right side not in the middle of neck . I don t know what to do . I think this is tb effect or infection

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this was the Tubercular infection then it had to complete the course of 8 months to one years, if this not being completed the course of drug then first you have to complete the course with rule out the possibility of drug resistance hope this information helps.
