What causes bone cancer

What causes bone cancer? Bone tumors are a disease that has only become well-known in recent years. Patients with bone tumors can be said to be traumatized both physically and mentally. However, since people do not know much about bone tumors, many patients still find it incredible after being diagnosed. So, what exactly causes bone tumors?

Bone tumors refer to malignant tumors that occur in bones, mainly osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, multiple myeloma, chordoma, reticulum cell sarcoma, etc. Symptoms and signs of bone tumors mainly include anemia, fatigue, malnutrition and cachexia. Local pain and tenderness are the most common, which may appear at the same time as or before the mass. The pain is mild at first, intermittent and dull, and then becomes continuous severe pain. Bone expansion and deformation and soft tissue masses can be felt in the superficial part. The skin is dark red, tense and shiny, the skin temperature increases, and a large mass is formed in a short period of time, and functional disorders, bone deformities and pathological fractures are caused.

Bone tumors are the same as other tumors. Their etiology is very complex. Generally speaking, internal factors are present first, and external factors occur through internal factors. Internal factors include the quality theory, gene theory, endocrine theory, etc.; external factors include chemical elements and chronic internal and external radiation.

Stimulation theory, viral infection theory, etc. Multiple osteochondromas and fibroid hyperplasia are both related to the family. Bone tumors often occur between the ages of 10 and 30, indicating that the vigorous growth of bones is related to the occurrence of tumors. Therefore, it can be considered that during the growth and maturation of bones, the body is more sensitive to the stimulation of the above factors, so that it is easy to become a tumor or tumor-like lesions. Benign bone tumors can become malignant: such as chondroma, osteochondroma, osteoblastoma, etc. can all be malignantly transformed into sarcoma, and fibroid hyperplasia in tumor-like lesions can also be malignantly transformed into sarcoma. Some patients with bone tumors often recall a history of trauma to the affected part, such as sprains, bruises, etc. In fact, this type of trauma will not cause bone changes, and osteosarcoma occurring at the fracture site is extremely rare; it is likely that when the tumor develops to a certain extent, the trauma prompts obvious symptoms to attract attention.

Doctors of all dynasties have further explored and supplemented the understanding and treatment of this disease from different aspects, which has gradually deepened the understanding of this disease. Combining the discussions of various doctors, it is believed that the occurrence of this disease is always caused by insufficient kidney qi, imbalance of yin and yang, and dysfunction of viscera, so that cold, dampness and toxic evil take advantage of the opportunity to enter, and qi and blood stagnate, which accumulates in the bones. For example, the invasion of external evils from the surface to the inside, deep into the bones, accumulates for a long time; falls and injuries, blood vessels are damaged, blood stasis accumulates, and does not disperse into tumors; insufficient endowment, or excessive labor, excessive sexual intercourse, consume kidney qi, kidney is responsible for bone and marrow, kidney qi deficiency will cause bone disease; eating too much and not restraining, damage to the spleen and stomach, spleen failure, dampness and phlegm, accumulation into tumors; mental stimulation, emotional depression, excessive five emotions, resulting in imbalance of yin and yang, disharmony of qi and blood, and blockage of meridians, leading to osteoma.

I believe you can find the answer to the cause of bone tumor formation in the above article. The early symptoms of bone tumors are still very obvious, and it is mainly necessary for everyone to pay more attention to the disease. Bone tumors are currently a very serious type of tumor disease, and the harm they bring to patients cannot be underestimated, so timely treatment is a very critical issue.
