Lymphoma??


What do lymphoma tumors feel like to the touch. Are they rubbery or rock hard?

mine were hard

My lymphoma some are hard and others are soft .I thing it depends on if there is an infection along with the swelling. most of them are soft and not painful and others are painfully hard and pressing up against some thing, a nerve or organ that is causing the pain.

they feel rock hard. if it's rubbery then you probably have an infection. but you should get it checked out because the lymph nodes are what causes cancer metastasize. and if lymphoma is what you have, then it can spread any where at anytime

Mine were hard. If you have any doubt, see a physician and don't stop bugging him until you get the answers your need.
