Can lymphoma be prevented?
A. Because there is not yet a certain known cause of lymphoma, there is no identifiable way to prevent its occurrence. However, patients who have conditions associated with a higher risk of NHL in general, or T-cell lymphoma in particular, should see their doctor promptly if they develop symptoms suggestive of lymphoma (enlarged lymph nodes, new skin rash or a skin rash that is different from the usual, night sweats, lack of appetite, unexpected weight loss). This will allow early recognition and treatment.
