Bone tumors occur when cells within a bone divide rapidly, resulting in a lump or mass (tumor). They can be cancerous or non-cancerous. Bone tumors can originate from the bone or be caused by another cancer that has spread to the bone.The exact cause for "primary" bone tumors (arising from the bone's own cells) is unknown. Possible risk factors include genetics, previous radiation therapy, bone traumas, anticancer medications, etc.
Typical Symptoms of Bone Tumor

- Unable to lie on the back due to pain
- Low back pain
- History of cancer
- Back pain
- Unintentional weight loss of more than 5% or 4.4lbs/2kg in a month
- Knee pain

Diagnostic Questions for Bone Tumor
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Are you experiencing an inability to move one side of your body?
- Does lying on your back make the pain worse?
- Do you have lower back pain?
- Have you ever had cancer?
- Do you experience back pain?
Treatment of Bone Tumor
Treatment depends on size, location, and whether the tumor arises from the bone itself or whether it is a cancer that has spread from another organ (metastatic). Surgery, chemotherapy, radiation treatment, cryosurgery, and targeted therapy are all methods for treating bone cancer.

Male, 20s
My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.

Male, 50s
The questions asked and possible causes seemed spot on, putting me at ease for a next-step solution.
(Sep 26, 2024)
Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
