A member asked:
Chikenpox can cause neck tb to reoccur again? got swollen lymph nodes under chin, ear & back of head. is tb come back or is it due to chikenpox?

Mgt/workup: I would recommend an evaluation for TB. A chest radiograph and possibly cultures are indicated. When you have chickenpox, there also are lymph nodes which enlarge, but in six weeks should return to normal.
