Lymph Node Cancer Symptoms

Lymph node cancer, also known as Hodgkin’s disease, is cancer that starts in the lymph nodes. If caught early, it is treatable; however, it is not always caught early because its symptoms can be disguised as other diseases.

Lymph node cancer symptoms include:

Firm but painless swelling of the lymph glands, which are tender to the touch
Tiredness
Weight loss
Severe night sweats
Fever
Generalized itchy skin
Red or purple lumps under the skin
Noticeable swelling
Inability to have bowel movements
Loss of appetite
Nausea
Vomiting
Pain
Headache
Trouble thinking and moving parts of the body
Personality changes
Seizures

Again, since these symptoms can be affiliated with a number of different diseases or disorders, it is important to determine that your symptoms are not cancer. Seek your doctor immediately if you begin to exhibit several or more of these symptoms with apparent reason.
