Taking stock of complications of lymphoma

Lymphocytes can undergo malignant transformation in the thymus and bone marrow, and can also change in the lymphatic tissues of lymph nodes, spleen, tonsils and other tissues and organs throughout the body. It is a systemic cancer.

In addition to its own symptoms, lymphoma may also cause some complications, which can also cause certain harm to patients. Complications of lymphoma generally include gastrointestinal diseases, pain in the liver area, skin itching and other symptoms of lymphoma invasion.

1. Gastrointestinal diseases:

As the disease progresses, lymphoma patients gradually lose their appetite and develop symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and sometimes abdominal masses.

2. Pain in the liver area:

Invasion of the liver and gallbladder can cause pain in the liver area. Clinically, patients with this disease also show symptoms of local bone pain and secondary nerve compression symptoms.

3. Pruritus

Lymphoma patients may experience rashes and itching on their skin, and this pruritus often occurs in Hodgkin's disease.

4. Others: Tonsils, nose, mouth, and pharynx are often invaded by lymphoma. Lymphoma patients may also have other complications, such as lymphoma invading the pancreas, leading to malabsorption syndrome.

These complications also threaten the health of patients. As the saying goes, early detection, early examination and early treatment can ensure the best prognosis.
