Brief Answer:
After 9to 11 days it is positive.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
I have described in my reply, it is positive, after 9 to 11 days, so it will be positive,at 36 Th day as well if there is infection . So there is no infection. If you want to clarify, you can go for western blot test for confirmation. It also will be negative.
But regarding the swelling of lymph glands in the armpit, and side of the neck, you have to get the medical help, so i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment .
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
