Cancer doesn’t appear suddenly. “If detected and intervened promptly at this stage, we can completely prevent the disease.” One of the key areas where early symptoms show is the neck, but these signs are often ignored.
1. Swollen Lymph Nodes
Lymph nodes help fight infections and are mostly found in the neck. If they become:
– Larger than 1cm
– “Attached to surrounding tissue”
– “Unclear borders”
– “Painful to the touch”
– “Hard, solid density”
…these could be early signs of neck lymphoma. Immediate tests like ultrasound or biopsy are advised. “If cervical lymphadenopathy is detected early, there will be a better chance of treatment.”
2. Pustules on the Neck
Persistent red or itchy pustules that don’t heal may signal something more serious. Cancer may weaken the immune system, causing “endocrine disorders and inflammatory reactions.” If acne remains despite treatment and is joined by fatigue, weight loss, or poor health, seek medical attention.
