Answer 1

Lymphoma :

3. Lymphoma can affect all those areas as well as other organs throughout the body.
4. It begins when a disease-fighting white blood cell called a lymphocyte develops a genetic mutation that leads the cell to multiply rapidly, causing many diseased lymphocytes that continue multiplying.

4. Itchy skin.
