Bone Cancer Symptoms

Cancer can and does occur within the human skeleton meaning it is possible to have a malignant tumor or tumors in our joints and bones. If a cancer begins first in a bone, the resultant tumor is known as a primary bone cancer. It is possible for a tumor located elsewhere in the body to be the primary cancer and from there, a cancer may spread to the bone. This would be a secondary bone cancer. Most bone cancers occur within bones in the arms and the legs.
