Blood is a fluid plasma and cell-rich circulating tissue. It transports nutrients and oxygen to the body's various tissues while also removing carbon dioxide and trash. A blend of blood cells and plasma makes up whole blood. Erythrocytes (red blood cells), leucocytes (white blood cells), and platelets are all blood cells (thrombocytes).
The blood cells are infected with a variety of disorders. One of the most serious types of cancer is blood cell cancer. Blood illnesses have an impact on how the body produces blood and gives immunity to other diseases.
Lymphoma, Leukemia, and Multiple Myeloma are the three most common types of blood cancer.
1.Leukemia

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood-forming system, lymphatic system, and bone marrow of the body. Children are rarely affected by chronic leukaemia, whereas both children and adults are affected by acute leukaemia. Immature blood cells reproduce swiftly in acute leukaemia, crowding out healthy cells. The usual marrow is relegated to a smaller space. In vast numbers, these immature and aberrant cells might spread to other organs. A kind of leukaemia known as acute myeloid leukaemia is caused by this. The most frequent type of leukaemia in children is acute lymphoid leukaemia.
Acute Myeloid Leukemia is the most common type of leukaemia in teenagers, accounting for half of all cases. Chronic leukaemia develops when the body creates an excessive number of partially grown blood cells that are unable to function as mature blood cells. This form is less harmful than the acute type because it grows more slowly. With increasing age, a person's chances of developing chronic leukaemia grow. Fever, exhaustion, headaches, rashes, delayed healing cuts, unexplained weight loss, and swollen glands are all symptoms of Leukemia.
2. Lymphoma

Lymphoma is divided into two types: Hodgkin's and Non- Hodgkin's. Reed-Sternberg cells are aberrant cells found in Hodgkin's disease. The lymphatic system and any lymph tissue in the body are affected by this type of cancer. The most frequent type of lymphoma is non-lymphoma. Hodgkin's Males are more affected than females.
3. Multiple myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a bone marrow malignancy caused by excessive plasma cell proliferation. Plasma cells proliferate at an uncontrollable rate and create an excessive amount of a single kind of immunoglobulin. Multiple myeloma is a very uncommon malignancy.
