What Causes Recurring And Swelling Of Lymph Node?
Hi, I have gland TB. I had to undergo an operation to remove lymph node.Then I started to take medicine. But after one month I got another lymph node. Though I am continuing my medicine, after two months has got bigger. Some doctors tell it to remove by surgery but other tell not to have an surgery. I am confused what should I do? I have no pain on that area.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the lymph node is due to tuberculosis and your are already on anti TB drugs then no need to hurry for removing the swelled lymph node unless this filled with Pus, else this would be fine after some days with medicine going on, at the most aspiration can be done, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day,
