What happens to swollen lymph nodes in AIDS?

There are many causes of swollen lymph nodes in AIDS, and it is necessary to clarify whether the swollen lymph nodes are caused by AIDS itself, because HIV can cause swollen lymph nodes in the acute stage, but these swollen lymph nodes tend to subside on their own in about 1-3 weeks. There is also a possibility that the swollen lymph nodes are caused by various secondary infections during the AIDS period. In this case, the lymph nodes are often swollen in multiple areas, such as the neck, armpits, etc. To clarify the cause, a lymph node puncture can be performed to determine if there is a possibility of infection, such as tuberculosis or bacterial or fungal swelling of the lymph nodes, and treatment for this condition requires anti-infection treatment to restore the lymph nodes. Therefore, if you have swollen lymph nodes, it is recommended to visit a hospital first to clarify the diagnosis before proceeding to the next treatment.
