I was having pain in the belt line back area. I found I was sitting so much without lower back support. so I got a lumbar support and put some Icy Hot on it. It did help a lot. I did find out I had a few pinched nerves from arthritis and I'm gonna address that with a back Doctor.

If you're experiencing persistent back pain, it's important to discuss this with your healthcare provider, as they can determine if it's related to lymphoma or requires different evaluation. Some people with follicular lymphoma develop tumors in their abdomen that can be significant in size. These tumors may cause physical changes, create pressure, or lead to swelling in different locations depending on how they affect nearby structures and blood vessels.
