As it turns out a lymphoma - Part 1
tumors are treacherous.
People often think that tumors do poorly, or do you live in another way. It 's true, you are alive and often cause pain, but this usually happens because they grow, invade surrounding tissues, giving distant metastases, which in turn grow and invade ... But earlier, when it is small, cancer often does not feel right. Yet it is precisely when a tumor is small can be better fought. To prevent this, whenever feasible, is important.
instead lymphoma, Hodgkin's at least one, sometimes makes itself felt in his own way. (There are several types of lymphoma, primarily divided into two main groups: Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The reason and significance of this division, I'll leave you to search Google ... ^___^ I have Hodgkin's disease and I talk about this. )
The NHL is a cancer that arises in a lymph node, and the lymph nodes are small organelles scattered 'throughout, very useful for our defenses immune. The NHL, therefore, usually "born" in a lymph node: then spreads to the lymph nodes closest first, then those a bit 'more distant, and finally reaching the lymphoma cells in bone marrow, which is the "factory" of all blood cells and the immune system.
symptoms with which it can 'are in fact present a Hodgkin nonspecific pruritus (everywhere, and without apparent cause), tossettina hacking, or fever or low-grade fever, weight loss, night sweats profusely. Then
lymphoma MAY 'be heard because, growing up, going to compress other organs, a vein, perhaps, or intestines. Or is it a place where if it grows quickly see the "bump": the sides of the neck, in armpits, the folds of the groin ... In this case, the person realizes it and goes to the doctor immediately, who will make the appropriate examinations.
course, if has an itch not think of the lymphoma, as well Nanni Moretti said in one of his films, and hundreds of cases may have fever, night sweats and when a general is to blame the heat, heavy duvet , when heated too high ...
However, Hodgkin CAN 'also not to be heard at all ... and be discovered almost by chance, maybe doing an ultrasound or a chest X-ray.
But if you have many of the disorders described above, maybe we should do some tests ... just to be safe!
... and I as I found to have Hodgkin's disease? If you are interested in knowing you have to read part 2!
