Myths about bone metastasis cancer

Myth: There must be bone pain if bone metastasis occurs, and there must be no bone metastasis if there is no bone pain? Not all bone metastases will have painful symptoms. In the early stage of bone metastasis cancer, a considerable number of patients do not have pain symptoms, but show symptoms such as weakness and discomfort around the body. Once the bone metastasis reaches the later stage, most of them will have more severe bone pain. There are also cancer patients who only realize they have bone metastasis when they have pathological fractures. Doctor’s tip: For cancer patients, it is important to follow up. Regardless of whether there is bone pain or not, regular follow-up and systematic examination should be carried out to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment in order to achieve better treatment results.
