Lymphoma ? Itching No rash

Since December I have had extremely itchy skin but NO rash at all. It doesn't leave marks on my skin either. But I am so itchy throughout the whole day I end up cutting my skin just through scratching! I've tried antihistamines but it's not working.  It has got to the point I have insomnia and wake up every night and can't sleep for a while. It's driving me crazy!! Now I have found a lump on my groin under the skin, you can't see it but can feel it  only 1 is swollen but it's it's about 2cm wide and is hard but moves slightly when touches. I am only 21 so hope it's just a cyst and the skin is a different issue - please can someone advise. 

  • Hello Meganloise,

    Thank you for posting.  I see from your post that you are worried about some symptoms you have.  The best thing to do is to go and see your doctor about these problems.  When you are worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers on an online forum, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better.  And the only person that can diagnose you is your doctor.  

    I hope this is helpful,
