Any Correlation Between An Insect Bite Like Wound On Chest And Messenteric Mass Lymphoma?
About 2 years ago I had some type of wound that looked like an insect bite on my chest and my lymph nodes at back of my head were the size of golf balls and extremely painful, steroid cream and antibiotics cleared it up, I have now been diagnosed with messenteric mass lymphoma, is there any correlation between the two?
Hi and thanks for the query, These are actually two different conditions. I am afraid they really do not have any relationship. In case it were a swollen lymph node, it is possible that with an insect bite, with local inflammation, it could occur. A lymphoma is a tumor and requires time and has very different risk factors. I am afraid they are not related. Kind regards
