primary bone cancer is rare less than 2500 Americans are diagnosed with this type of cancer

 each year it occurs in children more than it does in adults the most common forms of

primary bone cancer are osteosarcoma this is something which occurs primarily in growing

bone tissue a Ewing sarcoma this also occurs primarily in immature tissue in the bone marrow

these two cancer's most often occur in adolescence or young adults between the ages of 10 and

20 another form of primary bone cancer is chondrosarcoma this occurs in the cartilage and is

more common in adults over the age of 50 what is it that causes bone cancer well mostly we

don't know but sometimes it may be due to genetic factors or induced by radiation what are

the symptoms of bone cancer pain is the most common symptom bone cancer can arise in

any bones but most frequently it occurs in the long bones of the arms and the legs the other

 possible symptoms and signs of bone cancer include weaken bones sometimes leading to a

pathological fracture there may be joint swelling and tenderness especially for tumors that are

near the joints there may also be fatigue fever or unexplained weight loss there may also be

signs of anemia how do we diagnose these problems we need to make tests such as x-rays CT

scans ultrasound or MRI scans other tests that may be in clue or may be required include a

bone scan or even an examination of a tissue sample from that suspicious area the treatment

of the bone cancer depends on the type of bone cancer as well as its location the size and the

stage or how far it's spread if you develop any worrying symptoms such as an unexplained

bone pain you do need to see your doctor having a bone pain doesn't necessarily mean that

you have cancer much more likely it's due to an injury or arthritis but it's much safer to let your doctor decide what the next step should be. Next Most Common Type of Bone Cancer
