Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Painful Swollen Lymph Node In The Groin Area
I have a swollen (very painful) lymph node in the groin on the left side. It has elongated and is hard to walk. My annual woman exam was good but I had a uti. My husband and I are faithful to each other and have been married 7 yrs now. This is the third time this has happened but they were always small and circular. This time the lymph node is pretty big, about an inch and a half maybe. Seems like there are two swollen lymph nodes. All together could be almost 3 inches. Leg pain, felt dizziness and thought I was going to faint the night before last. Nausea. Do I need to go to urgent care?
If it persists with pain and swelling, it may get suppurated too. Swollen lymph nodes already denote some underlying infection. It is better to take antibiotics and may get removed by surgeon , if he so directs.
People who want to avoid surgery to the extent possible, we direct as per Ayurveda principle to start taking curcumin ( turmeric powder) in warm milk or water twice a day or Haridra capsules of Himalya pure herb series.This is also curcumin. Alongwith this, Kanchnar guggul and Arogyavardhini Vati 2 bid each may be started. If suppuration has not already started, it will subside it. If started, it will ripen , drain and dried with no further complications. No side effects.
Hope it will help you.
