10 Signs of Lymphoma

7. Altered Skin

Lymphoma often causes visible skin changes. On top of the itchy rash it causes in some people, the disease occasionally produces scaly or rough patches of skin. Sometimes these spots are raised and flat on top. On the other hand, sometimes they're lumpy, or they might be flush with the surrounding skin. Often, therefore, these signs give the impression you have eczema or psoriasis. Skin signs like these usually go along with less-serious forms of lymphoma. In these cases, the disease rarely spreads beyond the visibly affected areas. Every form of lymphoma is cause for concern, of course, and it takes a good dermatologist to correctly identify these skin irregularities.
