10 Lymphoma Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #6: Lumps or Lymphadenopathy
This is one of the most common and sometimes the sole symptom of lymphoma. The lumps are often felt around regions such as armpits, neck, and groin. Needless to say, these lumps may be enlarged lymph nodes. While it may not always be a sign of lymphoma, it is important to have a doctor examine them.
Most of these bumps are first noticed during bathing or by a partner. The enlarged lymph node is not usually painful, but some patients have reported pain in the lump after alcohol consumption. Swollen lymph nodes have various causes such as infections, other cancers, and more.
