Signs and symptoms of leukemia in children

A sign is a phenomenon that can be observed and confirmed by a doctor or health professional (e.g. a rash). A symptom is something that only the person in whom it manifests can feel and know (e.g. pain or fatigue).

The signs and symptoms of childhood leukemia may vary depending on the specific type of leukemia. The signs and symptoms of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (LAL) and acute myeloid leukemia (LAM) are very similar.
