hello, thanks for ur query, if any lymphadenitis not treated in time it may form abscess and subsequently rupture. in my opinion it has got ruptured, if d cause tb , u need to take full course of anti tb drugs for 6 months . u require dressing and oral medications for that opened wound . visit an ent or chest physician. all d best, take care.
