Lymphadenitis

2021-06-22 04:33:14
I've swollen lymph node in my groin area, I had fever and pain initially but it's gone now. It has been around 15 days. My doctor took a biopsy via needle, the results were fine. But now it produces pus, not too much. What should I do now ? Please help

Biopsy by needle is FNAC I think and its not always diagnostic for the disease. You may have to undergo excision biopsy for better result, though must be preceded by thorough physical examination.
Next Steps
Visit a General Surgeon for examination and further management.
