Hodgkin's lymphoma
Hodgkin's lymphoma, also known as Hodgkin's disease, is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system, which is part of the body's immune system.
It is characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells, a type of abnormal cell that can be identified under a microscope.
The symptoms of Hodgkin's lymphoma can often be mistaken for other less serious conditions, which makes early diagnosis crucial.
Common symptoms include painless swelling of the lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin, persistent fatigue, fever, night sweats, unexplained weight loss, and itching.
Some people may also experience pain in the lymph nodes after consuming alcohol.
The exact cause of Hodgkin's lymphoma is not known, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
Risk factors include a family history of the disease, being male, and having a weakened immune system.
Early detection and treatment are vital, as Hodgkin's lymphoma is one of the most treatable forms of cancer, especially when diagnosed at an early stage.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms or have concerns about Hodgkin's lymphoma, it is important to seek medical advice promptly.
