<human>: i have been getting a dull aching, but persistent pain in my lower abdomen on the right. Its been happening for a while now. And then I get like these puss filled nodes/bumps on my pubic area.. one of them turned into like an open wound once. what is this?
<bot>: Hi. Since you have got pus filled nodes in the groin and one is opened up and also have persistent dull ache in the right lower abdomen, I would think of the lymph node mass in the right Iliad fossa. This may be due to tuberculosis or fungal or just infective. I would advise you to have an ultrasonography, FNAC and CT scan to prove.Also, would advise for blood tests for CBC, sugar, Quantifier gold test for tuberculosis; Urine and stool; colonoscopy to cecal infection. Pus from the opened node for gram staining AFB staining, culture sensitivity. Treatment would be to start Board spectrum antibiotics and anti-tb treatment on empirical basis if thought so.
