I've got this hard lump below my collarbone and above my breast that feels like bone and it's been there for over two years. It doesn't hurt or anything, so I never worried much about it. But recently I got this rash, and the dermatologist said it's pityriasis rosea. Theres also a swollen lymph node on my neck and I just noticed another hard, immovable, and painless lump below the first one. Should I be worried about these lumps?

I found a few hypoechoic lesions in both my breasts one 15mm in the upper outer right, two more in the subareolar region, and a couple in the left breast's lower quadrants. There are also some small simple cysts in the upper quadrants. The report says the rest looks normal, but I'm worried do I need surgery or can medicines help What are the risks if I go for surgery
Hypoechoic lesions in the breast may or may not require surgery. If they’re benign, monitoring them with regular follow-ups is often sufficient. Surgery is typically considered if there’s any suspicion of malignancy or significant changes.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's had these enlarged supraclavicular lymph nodes for two years now. There are no signs of TB like fever, weight loss, or fatigue, and she's been managing her diabetes pretty well. There was nothing in the lymph nodes when tested for CBNAAT. The ultrasound showed they're quite large, and the biopsy results indicated granulomatous lymphadenitis. The document says TB needs to be ruled out, and the AFB stain came back negative. They also mentioned something about doing a TBPCR test to make sure it's not tuberculosis. The microscopic findings talked about some kind of granulomas but no caseous necrosis was found. TB PCR didn't show any sign of MTB or non-TB mycobacteria. I'm quite confused and worried about what all this means. Is this something serious? What should we do next?
That could be non specific TB infection,might need complete course of ATT, visit physician for appropriate management
