Please find the attached report of back of neck says a small inflamatory lession since observed from last 10 months but no other symptoms in bodies like fever , weight loss , other swelling etc. The existing swelling is painless, not increased. My physician says to do further FANAC to get confirm, but due to COVID situations I am unable to perform FANAC . What is your opinion as per USG is anything wrong? . Regular physical exercise can be continued pls explain? I have also taken antibiotics with antiinflamatory tablets for 15 days .
