I have a swollen lymph node that is progressively getting bigger and more tender under my jaw I have had a complete cbc work up and have a high platelet count and a low htc count also have a fatty liver dr ordered a ct scan but did elaborate over what she could be looking for.. I also have a normal wbc she did say she didn t think it was a infection
Hi Thanks for consulting HCM A lymph node must be examine for FNAC ( fine neddle aspiration cytology) which will clearify either the origin of lymph node is tubercular or cancerous. even in tuberculosis wbc is normal On ultrasound grade 1 fatty liver doesnot require medicine and need blood test LFT after physical examination of body , lymph node and blood report / ultra sound report i only can comment about ct . so kindly disscuss with your doctor about FNAC by a good Diagnostic centre
