I'm really worried because I had 23 lymph nodes on my neck after finishing my TB treatment. After seeing a doctor, I was given Moxif 400 and Pantocide 40, which helped, and the nodes burst out. I was fine for a while, but now after 7 months, a single node is back with pus-like symptoms. I'm really anxious about what's the best treatment for this and how long it will take to heal. Is there a chance it could come back again after 6 or 7 months even after getting treated? Please, I need some guidance on what to do.

I'm really worried because my dog recently had rabies and unfortunately passed away. I didn't get bitten or scratched, but I did come into contact with its saliva. Back in 2016, I took a series of 5 rabipur shots after a bite exposure, and this year I went for a single rabipur booster. Do I need to get more shots now? I'm pretty anxious about this, so any advice would be really appreciated.

2 shots of rabipur should be taken , if saliva has touched any open wound. otherwise not. required

I'm wondering, how common is lymph node TB in India? And is it true that if someone has a relapse of lymph node TB, it always turns into the MDR form? I'm trying to understand how serious this could be.

I've been having these weird episodes where I suddenly start shivering, and my body temperature drops. But then, not long after, the shivering stops, and my temperature goes up really high. It's confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this, and how concerned should I be?

history not enough to make a diagnosis consult your doctor
