Yes, lymphoma can cause a rash that appears on the neck and other parts of the body. This is particularly associated with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that affects the skin.
One MyLymphomaTeam member shared: "I was itching very bad from my neck to my feet. I went to nine different doctors and they all misdiagnosed me." Lymphoma rashes can appear in three forms:
- Patches — flat, smooth, or scaly, resembling a typical rash
- Plaques — thicker, harder, and scaly to the touch
- Tumors — raised bumps or nodules
These rashes are often mistaken for common skin conditions, so it's really important to see a doctor if a rash doesn't go away with standard treatments. If you're experiencing a persistent rash on your neck, bring it up with your care team as soon as possible. Early evaluation can make a big difference in getting the right diagnosis and treatment.
