Lymphoma has become as scary as lung cancer after the death of famous host Luo Jing and actress Li Yu. With the improvement of living environment, the incidence of lymphoma has been increasing, especially in recent years, it has been targeting white-collar workers in urban areas. So, what exactly is the “dreaded” lymphoma? Lymphoma is a malignant tumor of the lymphatic hematopoietic system. All lymphomas are malignant and can occur in any part of the body, the most common being the malignant transformation of surface lymph nodes. According to some statistics, about 2/3 of lymphomas occur in body surface lymph nodes, such as the neck, armpit, groin, throat, and tonsils. Lymphoma can also occur in the lungs, stomach, intestines, bones, liver and spleen, thyroid gland, central nervous system, etc. Therefore, the manifestations of lymphoma are very strange and complicated. The general public should feel the lymph nodes in the neck, armpit and groin for early detection and treatment to improve the cure rate. Why does lymphoma target young white-collar workers? Modern people’s high work pressure and irregular living habits are the causes of lymphoma. Long-term mental stress caused by excessive work pressure and frequent late nights of working class people can cause the decrease of human immune function, and poor immune function has been proved to be closely related to lymphoma. Most of the lymphomas suffered by young white-collar workers, especially men, develop rapidly, and if they do not receive treatment, the average life expectancy of these patients is only 6 months, as exemplified by the famous host Luo Jing. Early “signal” of lymphoma: itchy skin, excessive sweating with long-term low fever Some lymphoma patients have unexplained itchy skin, which is a clinical manifestation of early onset. Early “sign” of lymphoma. Self-examination of superficial lymph nodes is a way to detect lymph node abnormalities at an early stage. Early detection and timely consultation can greatly improve the cure rate of lymphoma. Early detection, lymphoma cure is no longer a dream. At present, chemotherapy is still the first choice for the treatment of lymphoma, while the combination of chemical drugs and targeted drugs is used for treatment, and if patients can actively cooperate and standardize treatment, the cure rate of lymphoma can be as high as more than 50%! Therefore, lymphoma is not terrible, but the key is to carry out standardized treatment under the guidance of a specialist after diagnosis.
