What symptom is lymphatic tuberculosis?

Abscess type: the center of enlarged lymph node softens, gradually expands or suddenly increases, and there is wave motion to form abscess. If secondary infection, local red, swelling, heat, pain and other acute inflammatory manifestations. Ulcer type: the abscess fluctuates to become superficial, easily ulcerated, and flows out thin caseous pus. The wound does not heal for a long time, forming a sinus or ulcer.

Nodular type: the onset is slow, the first local lymph node painless swelling, initially as broad bean size, hard texture, scattered and active, can have mild tenderness, no adhesion. With the progress of the disease, the volume of lymph node tuberculosis increased, the activity gradually decreased, and the adhesion became clusters. This state can be maintained for several months without obvious change.

Infiltrative type: the enlarged lymph nodes fuse into a mass, with obvious inflammation around the lymph nodes, adhesion with surrounding tissues and skin, softening in the center, cheese necrosis, limited movement, and increased pain and tenderness. Lymphatic tuberculosis is a chronic consumptive disease. The treatment should start from the whole, strengthen the body and strengthen the foundation, and give consideration to both medicine and food therapy. Pay attention to the nutrition of patients, diet plays an important role in the treatment of lymphatic tuberculosis.

matters needing attention

1. Surgical resection should be considered for a small number of limited, large and propelling lymph nodes. 2. If the cold abscess has been formed but has not yet been penetrated, it is feasible to puncture the abscess by stealth. The needle was inserted from the normal skin around the abscess. The pus was drained as much as possible, and then 5% isoniacin solution or 10% streptomycin solution was injected into the pus cavity for flushing. Appropriate amount should be kept in the pus cavity, twice a week. 3. If the secondary infection is not obvious, it is feasible to remove the cold abscess. All the lesions were carefully removed. The wound was not sutured, and the dressing was changed with streptomycin solution.
