Brief Answer:
Itching
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking
I can understand your concern ,but that does not mean that every symptoms that you have is related to malignancy
In my opinion you should not worry because in this case you are not dealing with lymphoma
See your doctor if the itching:
1-Lasts more than two weeks and doesn't improve with self-care measures
2-Is severe and distracts you from your daily routines or prevents you from sleeping
3-Affects your whole body
At the moment i will suggest you Antihistamine Medications
Hope this helps you
Regards
