I was diagnosed with a UTI, along with vaginal itching and discharge. My urine report continued to show the presence of pus cells. Recently, I have also been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. My Mantoux test result is 10 by 15 mm, and my chest Xray is normal. Could this mean I am suffering from tuberculosis?

A Mantoux of 10 by 15mm could be positive, depending on risk and exposure. Further TB evaluation may be needed. Vaginal symptoms may need a gynaecological review.

I have been suffering from fever for the past month and there is a tumour-like swelling around my neck area. A doctor advised me to go for a USG-guided biopsy. In my report, it says features are suggestive of granulomatous lymphadenitis. No evidence of malignancy is noticed. What does it mean?

We noticed a lump on the left side of my wife neck (age 25, 45 kg, 5.2). At that time, the lump was about the size of a small lemon. We immediately consulted an MD in Internal Medicine, who recommended FNAC and blood tests. The report showed Granulomatous Lymphadenitis with no malignant cells, and her ESR was 15. She experienced mild weakness and slightly elevated body temperature for the first two weeks, but now she feels fine. We have completed a 7 day course of antibiotics, but the lump has not decreased in size. What can be done to reduce the lump?

My blood report shows a Mantoux test result with an induration of 22 mm, which is positive. What does this indicate?
