Hi. If this is a proven case of TB, you have to continue Forcox. The pain can grow due to internal collection under more pressure and due to weather as you rightly mentioned.Medicines do take some time to act so the course is of long duration of minimum of 6 months. You can go for CT scan of the area , if the pain is increasing.
