Confirm the lymph node by sending it to excision biopsy and for cytology ... you should immediately do culture sensitivity for TB ... it also may be due to MDR TB

There can be two explanations for this problem that you are facing. 1. the treatment might be failing - if you have taken treatment properly and you had undergone proper test to find whether anti TB drugs were working or not - it is an extremely unlikely thing to happen. 2. Sometimes paradoxically - LN TB does aggravate or come up in new places. It will take time to settle down.
