Hello Sir, I have attached two copies of my report for the lymph node behind my ear. I have been taking different antibiotics for the past three weeks. I am having a fever once a day around 100 degrees and headaches. The doctor has said that if it is not cured, it may need to be removed surgically as it is a bacterial infection. Please suggest the best treatment in homeopathy or should I consider surgery?

If antibiotics have not helped and the fever persists, surgical removal may be needed. This could be a resistant bacterial infection. Avoid delaying further. You can get a second surgical opinion.

I am suffering from a very minor fever-like tendency for about a week. It goes away with PCM and sometimes without taking it. The temperature is very minor and gives a normal reading, but I feel very inactive because of it. I did my routine health check up 2 weeks ago and the blood report was quite normal. I do not know what has caused this problem?
