Bone cancer, primary and metastatic - the most common complaint of bone cancer patients is pain in the affected bone. It can be intermittent at first and perhaps worse at night. The pain may occur when the bone is used such as a leg bone when walking or hand bones when grasping or squeezing. Swelling in the painful area may also occur. Prompt diagnosis at the first signs of pain can help because the right treatment can delay or prevent further cancer spread, and help to alleviate complications and symptoms.
