From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Indolence evolved from the Latin in-dolens, "without griefs", implying "not worried about problems." [1] Indolence can mean:
- A synonym for laziness.
- In the context of medicine, an "indolent" condition is one that is not rapidly spreading, and is contrasted to an "aggressive" condition. It is frequently used in the context of lymphoma.
