Blood Cancer

What is it? How and why it happens?

The majority of blood cancers, also known as hematologic cancers, begin in the bone marrow, which produces blood. When abnormal blood cells begin to develop out of control, they disrupt the role of normal blood cells, which combat infection and create new blood cells.

Leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma are the three most common forms of blood cancer:

Leukemia is a blood cancer that starts in the bone marrow and spreads across the body. It happens when the body produces an excessive number of dysfunctional white blood cells, interfering with the capacity of the bone marrow to produce red blood cells and platelets.

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a type of blood cancer that arises in the lymphatic system from lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell that aids the body in fighting infections.

Hodgkin lymphoma is a blood cancer that arises from lymphocytes in the lymphatic system. The Reed-Sternberg cell, which is present in Hodgkin lymphoma, is a type of abnormal lymphocyte.

Multiple myeloma is a form of blood cancer that starts in the plasma cells of the blood, which are a type of white blood cell produced in the bone marrow.

The following are some of the most common blood cancer symptoms :

Chills and fever
Fatigue and weakness that persists
Nausea and a loss of appetite
Weight loss that isn’t clarified
Sweats at night
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a form of arthritis that affects the bones and
Uncomfortable stomach
aches and pains
Breathing problems
Infections that occur frequently
Itchy skin or a rash on the skin
Lymph nodes swollen in the spine, underarms, or groyne

Treatment for blood cancer is determined by the type of cancer, the age, the rate at which the cancer is spreading, and other factors. The following are some of the most popular blood cancer therapies for leukaemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma :

Chemotherapy is a treatment that uses anticancer drugs to halt the development of cancer cells in the body. Chemotherapy for blood cancer can include the administration of many drugs in a specific order. This procedure can also be used in conjunction with a stem cell transplant.

Radiation therapy is a form of treatment that can be used to kill cancer cells or alleviate pain and discomfort. It’s even possible to take it before a stem cell transplant.
