Question

I've been having some trouble with swallowing, like it feels weird or painful. So I went to my doctor, and two weeks ago, they did a throat swab and put me on Amoxicillin for a week. But the test results came back, and it turns out I have Staphylococcus Aureus mrsa. I'm a bit worried because I've heard mrsa can be resistant to Amoxicillin. Does this mean I need a different antibiotic now?

Question

I'm really worried about my uncle who's 56 and has been dealing with tubercular infection in his lymph nodes. Hes already been on anti-tubercular medication for 19 months, but it hasn't improved his condition at all. I'm wondering if there are any top doctors or hospitals in India, especially around Delhi, that you could recommend for this situation. Is surgery something we should be considering as our next step?
