Western medicine treatment

(I) Systemic treatment: Pay proper attention to nutrition and rest. Patients who have taken isoniazid orally for 1-2 years and have systemic toxicity symptoms or tuberculosis lesions elsewhere in the body. Add sodium para-aminosalicylate or rifampicin or add intramuscular injection of streptomycin.

2. Local treatment

1. For a few localized, larger, and movable lymph nodes, surgical resection may be considered. Be careful not to damage the accessory nerve during surgery.

2. If a cold abscess has formed but has not yet ruptured, cryptic puncture and drainage of the pus can be performed. The needle is inserted through the normal skin surrounding the abscess. Drain as much pus as possible, and then inject 5% isoflurane solution or 10% streptomycin solution into the abscess cavity for flushing. Leave an appropriate amount in the abscess cavity, twice a week.

3. If a cold abscess ruptures and forms an ulcer or sinus tract, curettage can be performed if the secondary infection is not obvious. Carefully remove all the diseased tissue. The wound was not sutured, and the dressing was changed with streptomycin solution.

4. Patients with cold abscesses and secondary suppurative infection. Incision and drainage are required first, and curettage can be performed if necessary after the infection is controlled.

It can be divided into two types: acute and chronic.
