General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your experience with large lump on the neck and groin chronic cough night sweat headache anaemia joint and muscle pain I strongly believe that you have developed a pulmonary tuberculosis with Lymphadenopathy

In view of this please do the following test
Chest x-ray
Sputum AFB
Mantoux test
Lymph node biopsy

Meanwhile please see a pulmonologist specialist with the results and for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription

I hope this helps Regards
