Answer:
1). Treatment for lymphoma depends on the type and stage of the cancer. For example, chemotherapy is often used to treat non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which involves using medicine to kill cancer cells. For early-stage disease or advanced stages with bulky sites, "involved field radiotherapy" may be required.
2). Symptomatic treatment is a medical therapy that only affects a disease's symptoms. It can also be called supportive care, supportive therapy, or palliative treatment. Symptomatic treatment eases symptoms without addressing the basic cause of the disease. For example, symptomatic treatment for advanced lung cancer that has spread beyond the lung is designed to decrease pain and other symptoms but not to eradicate the disease.
