I have been suffering from lymph node TB in my left side of the neck in from tge month of april this year, At first I ignored it, later it my left side of the neck gradually started swelling more. After onr month I have visited to a doctor he said me that this is a symptom of TB, as I lost a lot of weight even I could not eat anything as whatever I eat, all are vomited out, I was too weak at that period of time. The doctor had said me to do some test like FNAC, Ultrasound, Blood test, Urine test. Than after looking at my reports he said that I have a positive results of lymph node TB in my neck gland. I was so scared of it, As no one of our family has TB. The doctor than suggest me some medicines like AKT-4 (anti-tuberculosis med, Some extra vitamins. I was taking the medicines regularly. After 2-3 months the swelling which was small gradually started to become big and red. And pus was coming out of it. I than visited the doctor he said me that a surgery is needed for it. Than the surgery was done in the month of july. All the PUS was taken out of it. As there was a cut in the neck and it was not stitched the doctor said to have regular dressing of it. After some day of regular dressing the nurses found some dead white cells developed in it, which they ignored. Due to this after 2 months a lot of dead cells developed in it. I was scared. So I have visited the doctor again he said due to the intake of medicines the medicines are working in the infected cells and pushing the dead cells out of it. After that the doctor again did a small surgery to remove those dead cells as these dead cells prevent the recovering of the wound. So after doing this small surgery I have again done my dressings regularly and now its the month of December I am almost recovered but the wound is not recovering. It is still like a small area where the skin has to come. I have also notices that skin covers the whole area but again after someday a white PUS is seen in behind the skin. And again the skin burst and again a small wound is formed again and again. I had also said the doctor about this. He said me that it has infected deeply in my skin this is why it is happening. What should I do now to get completely get recovered?
