A man experienced persistent itching all over his body, initially thought to be an allergy. Despite over-the-counter remedies, his symptoms worsened, with redness and skin changes. When accompanied by fatigue and loss of appetite, he sought medical help. Tests revealed he had Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL), a rare skin lymphoma often mistaken for eczema or psoriasis. Early detection is crucial, as CTCL can progress if untreated. Symptoms include itchy patches, plaques, and potential spread to lymph nodes and organs. Diagnosis involves biopsies and blood tests. Treatment varies from topical therapy to systemic drugs, greatly improving outcomes with early intervention. This case underscores the importance of not ignoring persistent skin issues and seeking prompt medical advice. For the full story, see the first comment below…
