I've just had the Mantoux test done on 1542017. Now I've got this 20mm swelling and redness where they injected it. What could this mean? Should I be concerned?

View allI'm really worried about my friend. She's got these swollen lymph nodes in her neck and groin, and I keep coming across information online suggesting it could be HIV. That idea really freaks me out, but it also doesn't seem quite right. Is it possible these symptoms are just from something like a common cold?
yes it can be due to common cold also

I've been taking Hetrazan 100 for three days and noticed that my lymph nodes are swollen. Could this be a side effect of the medication, like maybe the diethylcarbamazine in it is causing this? I'm a bit worried about this reaction. What should I do?

I've noticed that every time I get a fever, malaria P. vivax seems to be the diagnosis, and I'm usually treated with Resochin 250mg and Basokuine. The problem is, it seems to come back again after some time. I'm really looking to find a way to prevent this from happening permanently. Any advice on what to do?
To prevent recurrent malaria caused by P. vivax, you will need a radical cure, usually with primaquine or tafenoquine, in addition to the standard treatment. Ensure you complete the full course of treatment, and take preventive measures to avoid mosquito bites and reinfection. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to ensure there is no relapse. If you have frequent relapses, it's important to discuss this with your doctor, as they may recommend further investigation or a change in treatment approach.
