What are the common symptoms of lymphoma

In recent years, lymphoma has become one of the major diseases that endangers society and human health, and it has brought great pain and distress to humans. In order to reduce the incidence of lymphoma, we humans should master the common symptoms of lymphoma:

1. Local manifestations:

1. Lymph node enlargement: It is the most common and typical clinical manifestation of lymphoma. It includes superficial and deep lymph nodes. The characteristics of enlarged lymph nodes are painless, smooth surface, mostly movable, and tough texture. In the early stage, they are active, isolated or scattered. In the late stage, they fuse with each other, adhere to the skin, become immobile, and may form ulcers. Superficial lymph nodes are more common in the neck, armpits, and groin, while deep lymph nodes are more common in the mediastinum, abdomen, and pelvic cavity.

2. Compression symptoms caused by swollen lymph nodes: Most patients have no obvious symptoms in the early stage. As the tumor grows, it can compress the nearby trachea, esophagus, veins, etc., causing coughing, dyspnea and dysphagia. If it develops rapidly, superior vena cava syndrome may occur.

2. Systemic symptoms:

There are often systemic symptoms such as general weakness, weight loss, loss of appetite, night sweats and irregular fever. Continuous fever, sweating and weight loss may indicate disease progression and poor prognosis. Anemia is common in late-stage patients. Progressive anemia and accelerated erythrocyte sedimentation rate are also important indicators for judging whether lymphoma has developed or not.

Extranodal lesions

Except for lymphatic tissue, any part of the body can be affected, with the gastrointestinal tract being the most common, with symptoms such as upper abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and intestinal obstruction. In addition, liver and spleen invasion can lead to hepatosplenomegaly and jaundice; bone invasion can manifest as local pain and fractures; skin invasion can cause pruritus and prurigo; tonsils and mouth, nose and pharynx invasion can clinically cause dysphagia, nasal congestion and epistaxis.
