A member asked:

I have recurring lymph node infection by e.coli. location is on the back of the neck. any advice?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lymphadenopathy: This is incredibly uncommon, assuming the diagnosis is correct. In almost 50 years of doing infectious diseases practice have never seen E. coli do this. If actually correct you need more thorough evaluation and excision of the lesion and prolonged antibiotic treatment along with assessment of your immune function. Good luck and hope you are better soon.
