Answers (1)

There is chance of recurrence of tuberculosis with tb lymphadenitis in our country.depends on our immune status and our health status. Are the swellings completely subsided during the prior ATT drugs 4yrs back? If completely resolved then now again go for fnac to confirm. Lymph nodes swelling mostly due to tb but not TB always
Next Steps
I advice for another FNAC
