Hello Sir, I am 33 yrs old just completed 9 months medication due to glands TB. After completion of cousre there is still little swelling in glands, which much little as it was 9 months ago. I just want to know why there is swelling after completion of course
HiT hanks for posting on ChatDoctorGiven that one of the manifestations of glandular TB is the progressive enlargement of the glands, the original size of glands before infection may not be attained so easily given the chronic inflammation that already took place. The size is however expected to reduce in the course of the treatment. Persistent minor swelling does not mean you still have the infection. However, after the treatment, a gland biopsy can still be sent for analysis before you are declared healed. You may see your Doctor for a confirmation of healing if not yet done. Hope this will help Best regards
