When you have gone for three c.t.scans and the diagnosis was of swollen lymph nodes.in my opinion it may be tubercular abdomen.
In my opinion you should go for elisa test for tuberculosis by blood examination.
Mri will show same thing in different locations.

My dad has a tumor in the upper and mid pole of the right kidney measuring 14 *6.9*10.5 CMS as per latest USG. 2. Likewise prostrate is also enlarged at 5 CMS. 3. The Impressions mentioned in the report include Mild Hepatocellular splenomegaly, small cyst measuring 1.7 CMS in the left lobe of liver, mass lesion in the right kidney, enlarged prostate. 4.The latest chest ray states, well defined rounded opacities in right mid zone and bilateral lower zone with a possibility of lungs metastasis. 5. He has lost 10 kgs in the last 1 year. 6. His left and right foot especially appear to be swelling now. Not sure why. 7. He wakes up 6-7 times at night to pass urine and as a result has a disturbed sleep. 8.He has been constantly having cough and pain along the lower back and spinal cord. If surgery needs to be done, how critical would that be? Life threats now versus Post surgery? Can surgery be avoided? Any effective oral medication?

Appears kidney cancer with spread to lung. PET/CT scan will show all the body parts affected with it, so that it can be analysed and managed better. Surgery is not required when there is already metastasis (spread). Oral medications are available to keep a control over the growth of tumor so that life can be extended. Please consult a qualified medical oncologist near by for further analysis and prescription.

He would need a CT thorax to confirm the size and number of metastasis. Also a bone scan would be advisable if bone pain or raised alkaline phosphate level in blood. PET CT scan can be done instead of both the above investigations. MRI brain if symptomatic.
If he is asymptomatic for the lung mets and his general condition is good and tumor is resectable and not poor prognosis on IMDC criteria (based on some blood reports and contition of Patient), then I prefer to to a cytoreductive nephrect...more

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Chicken pox a viaral infection is self limiting. There is really no treatment for that. If there is very high fever one may need antipyretics like paracetamol.
Antiviral drugs are not at all required. The lesions appear in crop and in about 12 hours dry up. Person remains infectious for a few days when lesions are drying. Taking drugs like gabapentine is absolutely unnecessary. Cefixime has no role at all as it is an antibiotic. Intake of enough liquids is im...more

Better to see a head and neck surgeon or an Oncosurgeon. It is more likely an acute infection or TB than cancer or lymphoma. They may ask for an Ultrasound or FNAC of the same.
