Lymphoma Symptoms  

At the genesis of the disease, lymphoma can have flu-like symptoms; these symptoms are passed unnoticed most of the times.  

Swollen lymph nodes in the neck, armpits or groin are the first symptom of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Among other possible symptoms include unexplained fever, night sweats, weight loss and pain in the stomach and intestines. As the tumor increases in size, you can develop anemia associated with fatigue and weakness 

The nature of the symptoms varies depending on the location of the tumor; thus lymphoma in the chest can result in: 

·         swelling of the face 

·         breathing difficulties 

·         accumulation of fluid in your lungs (pleural effusion). 

If the lymphoma is in your abdomen or small intestine, it can cause: 

·         diarrhea 

·         constipation  

·         loss of appetite 

·         abdominal pain  

·         weight loss 

·         Bloating.  

A lymphoma in your groin or on your skin can cause: 

·         itching

·         edema of the legs

·         skin discoloration or darkening of the skin.
