I'm dealing with a runny nose that mostly acts up at night, making it hard for me to get any sleep. It seems to go away only when I take medication, but it keeps coming back, especially during winter and rainy seasons. Interestingly, I don't face this issue in summer. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this better?

Monitoring progress is crucial when treating lymph node tuberculosis (TB). Here are some indicators to assess your progress: *Clinical Indicators* 1. *Reduced swelling*: Lymph node swelling should decrease in size. 2. *Less pain*: Pain and tenderness in the affected area should subside. 3. *Improved overall health*: You should experience increased energy levels and a general feeling of well-being. *Laboratory Tests* 1. *ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test*: This test measures inflammation. A decrease in ESR levels indicates improvement. 2. *CRP (C-Reactive Protein) test*: This test measures inflammation and infection. A decrease in CRP levels indicates improvement. 3. *Chest X-ray*: This test evaluates lung health. Improvement in lung condition indicates effective treatment. 4. *Sputum smear microscopy*: This test checks for TB bacteria in sputum. A negative result indicates treatment effectiveness. *Treatment Duration* Typically, lymph node TB treatment lasts for 6-9 months. Your doctor will assess your progress and adjust treatment duration accordingly. *Follow-up Appointments* Regular follow-up appointments with your doctor are crucial to monitor progress, adjust treatment, and address any concerns. After 2 months of treatment, you should start experiencing some improvement in symptoms. However, it's essential to continue treatment as prescribed and attend follow-up appointments to ensure complete recovery.
