What is a Bone Cancer
Bone cancer is a condition in which abnormal cells grow uncontrollably within the bone tissue. Primary bone cancers are uncommon but can be serious if not treated early. They can weaken the bone and affect overall mobility and health.
- Common symptoms include ongoing bone pain, which may increase at night, and swelling or tenderness near the affected area.
- Some types of bone cancer, such as Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma, are more commonly seen in children and young adults.
- Diagnosis usually involves imaging tests like X-rays, MRI, CT, or PET scans, followed by a biopsy to confirm the type of cancer.
- Treatment usually involves a combination of chemotherapy, surgery to remove the tumor, and in some cases radiation therapy.
- Chemotherapy uses medicines given through a vein to destroy cancer cells and may be given before or after surgery to improve outcomes.
