What are the early symptoms of lymphoma? What are the treatments for lymphoma?

1. The main symptom of lymphoma is swollen lymph nodes in the body. There is no pain or itching in the early stage, so it is often ignored. About 60% of lymphomas are first found in swollen lymph nodes in the neck. At first, they are only swollen, and the number gradually increases. The bigger the swelling, the bigger the swelling.

2. Lymphoma can occur in lymphatic tissue throughout the body, such as the chin, jaw, front neck, clavicle, armpit, groin, mediastinum or abdominal arteries, and sometimes cause compression symptoms in organs; the stomach, small intestine or large intestine may cause digestive tract symptoms such as abdominal distension, abdominal pain, abdominal mass, vomiting, and bloody stools; lymphoma invades the bone marrow and may cause symptoms such as pallor, fever, abnormal bleeding, and sometimes abnormal lymphocytes.

3. The malignancy of lymphoma is caused by the malignant proliferation of the lymphatic tissue cell system, which mainly occurs in the lymph nodes. The disease can occur at any age, and its incidence in children ranks third among childhood malignant tumors. The peak age of lymphoma is 31-40 years old, among which the peak of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma moves slightly forward. There are more male patients than female patients. Hodgkin's disease is more common in young people. The first symptom is painless enlargement of lymph nodes in the neck or above the clavicle, accounting for 60%-80%, with the left larger than the right. The second is enlarged axillary lymph nodes and deep lymph nodes.
