MOSCOW, 23 Jan. Different localizations of cancer may have different symptoms, but some are characteristic of several types of cancer at once, Express writes with reference to experts from the American medical portal Healthline. Experts called night sweats one of the «universal» signs of cancer. It can be an early symptom of leukemia, lymphoma, bone cancer and malignant liver tumors. It is emphasized that excessive sweating does not necessarily indicate cancer. In addition, there is no exact explanation why patients with certain types of malignant tumors experience night sweats. Among the reasons for this phenomenon are the reaction to treatment, in particular chemotherapy, changes in hormonal levels. Often, in addition to increased sweating, patients experience chills and a rapid pulse.
