My friend have 3 midium size hard balls on her neck can you tell what it could be because doctor said its like tb balls?

Need exam: Without an exam, it is almost impossible to tell you over the computer. It depends on history, demographics of illness in the area (is TB Epidemic near you), the location of the masses on the neck, the size, the consistency etc. Essentially an exam is needed to give you the most likely diagnosis.
