A member asked:
Are frequent, very mild night sweats (damp forehead, groin, bend of knees) a symptom of metastatic cancer? they're not drenching, like with lymphoma.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. : If you have never had cancer, it is HIGHLY unlikely that this would be the first symptom of metastatic cancer. However, it is still a symptom that warrants investigation.
