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 recently got some blood work done because I was worried about dengue. My results showed IgG negative, IgM weak positive, and NS1 AG negative, but my platelet count is normal at 2.78. I'm a bit confused about what all this meanscould I be having dengue right now? What should I be looking out for?

It is possible that you have a recent dengue infection. To manage the symptoms and aid in recovery, you can take Paracetamol 500mg every 6 hours for fever and body aches. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.

How soon after a covid infection do black fungus symptoms usually appear? Can early detection of black fungus be treated without needing surgery?

Black fungus, or mucormycosis, can appear within days to weeks after a COVID-19 infection, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems or those treated with corticosteroids. While early detection is crucial, not all cases can be treated without surgery, especially if the infection is advanced or involves vital structures like the eyes or brain
