I just got my dad's blood test report and it says IGG is negative, IGM is positive, and the NS1 antigen is negative. I'm kind of worried and wondering, does this mean he might have Dengue virus? Could you help me understand these results?

View allI've been having a fever at the same time every day, with shivering and body pain for the last 45 days. I visited a doctor, but they couldn't diagnose what's going on. Can you help me figure out what this might be? It's been pretty frustrating and worrying.
It sounds like you may have a recurring fever pattern, possibly due to an infection like malaria, dengue, or typhoid, which needs specific testing. Request blood tests like CBC, malarial parasite, and typhoid panel, and ensure adequate hydration and rest while awaiting results.

I've got a small lump on the right side of my neck, and while it doesn't hurt, I'm kind of worried. Could this be a sign of tuberculosis or something similar?

I'm really worried about my mother. She's had this swelling on her neck for about four months now, and while it doesn't hurt or irritate her, it's gotten bigger. We've done a bunch of tests, including something called an FNAC, and found out it's a gland from TB. Shes been on TB treatment for three months, but she's started feeling pain because now there's pus in that node. The doctor has already removed the pus twice this month, but the swelling doesn't seem to be getting any better, and now she has a fever that goes up to between 100 and 101 in the evening. Plus, she's lost her appetite and only manages to eat 1 or 2 chapatis per meal. I'm starting to wonder if she might need surgery to get rid of the pus completely. If that's the case, what kind of procedure would it involve?
take food with increased protein and increase the multuvitamin content
