10 Lymphoma Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #10: Skin Symptoms
Lymphoma of the skin can present as papules (lesions that look like pimples, patches (lesions that are flat), nodules (lumps or bumps), and plaques (thickened lesions, can be raised or lowered). These lesions on the skin are usually itchy, scaly, and have a reddish to purplish tint. The lesions usually show up on different parts of the skin that are not exposed to the sun. Larger lesions have a risk of ulcerating.
Other symptoms that are seen along with skin issues are lymphadenopathy, fever, weight loss, and itchiness. While having these symptoms are not a confirmation of lymphoma, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible for early diagnosis and treatment.
