Tuberculosis
I had Cold abcess two years back , when i strated to take medicine there is puss formed in my neck then the doctor undergone laproscopic surgery in my neck But the abcess is still there in my lymph node . The doctor advised me to take pills for TB i have taken for 6 months . In the 3rd month the surgery was done . In the end of 6th month the size of the abcess was reduced but it is not completely gone . Now i am feeling pain when i try to rotate my head completely . My doubt is "the abcess is still there ,is there possiblity for tb reinfection or that abcess is cancer ... If it is tb reinfection is there any possibility to reduce it with pills or i should do surgery
