World Lymphoma Day: If there is anodyne lymphadenopathy, you should check it in time.

  Xinhua News Agency, Chongqing, September 15th (Reporter Li Song) September 15th is World Lymphoma Day. Experts suggest that lymphoma is a disease that is good at "disguising". The initial symptoms are not obvious, and most of them are superficial lymphadenopathy. When patients have similar symptoms, they should be examined in time, which is helpful for early diagnosis and treatment.

  Nan Yingyu, deputy director of the Department of Hematology and Oncology, Cancer Hospital affiliated to Chongqing University, said that lymphoma is a malignant tumor originating from the lymphohematopoietic system. Although the cause of lymphoma is still unclear, many studies have shown that it may be related to environmental pollution, frequent hair dyeing and excessive tension and fatigue.

  "It should also be noted that although some inflammation can also cause lymph node swelling, in general, lymph node masses caused by inflammation are relatively soft and painful to press; Lymphoma lymphadenopathy is characterized by anodyne, smooth surface and tough texture. " Nan Yingyu said that if there are symptoms such as this kind of anodyne lymph node enlargement or unexplained fever, night sweats, emaciation and itching, don’t relax your vigilance and go to the hospital as soon as possible.

  According to experts, the symptoms of lymphoma are very disguised, and the classification is complicated, which makes it more difficult to make a definite diagnosis of lymphoma. Joint consultation by doctors from hematology oncology, pathology, radiotherapy, imaging and other disciplines is helpful to make a clear diagnosis and avoid misdiagnosis.
