Lymph Cancer

Cancer can essentially emerge in the lymph nodes in two ways: either it originates there or it spreads there from another location. Lymphoma is the term for cancer that develops from the lymph nodes. A class of blood tumors known as lymphomas arises from lymphocytes, a subset of white blood cells. Enlargement of the lymph nodes, fever, intense sweats, weight loss, itching, and persistent fatigue are some of the possible symptoms. Most of the time, the swollen lymph nodes don't hurt. At night, the patients may sweat.

The lymphoma has multiple subtypes. Hodgkin's lymphomas (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) are the two primary categories. The World Health Organization (WHO) lists immunoproliferative disorders and multiple myeloma as additional categories that fall under the umbrella of lymphoma types.
