Please go to the nearest TB hospital...or see a general surgeon....
They may take a biopsy of the swelling.. and will tell you what is needed next.
Tuberculosis can come again if you have low immunity..or because of drug resistance..
Next Steps
please go to the district tuberculosis center..
Health Tips
you may spread the disease to others.. please use cloths to cover your mouth whenever you are coughing..
