Who is at risk of bone cancer and how to recognize it?

Bone cancer is an infrequent disease. The reasons for its appearance are a number of factors, including:

Suffered injuries. And the injury could have been received even more than 10 years ago
Single or multiple ionizing radiation in large doses
Genetic predisposition: increased the likelihood of bone cancer in people with retinoblastoma, Li-Fraumeni syndrome (a genetic defect when the risk of oncology increases even at a young age), Rotmund-Thomson syndrome (skin, bone disorders, etc.)
Paget's disease: this pathology changes the mechanism of bone repair, which causes bone abnormalities 

The secondary variant of the disease develops against the background of metastasis from breast, lung, prostate growth. Less often there is a spread of metastasis on the bones in tumors of other organs.

Children and young people under the age of 30 are at risk, doctors say. Bone cancer is most commonly diagnosed in men aged 17-30. But in the elderly such pathology is rare.

Bone cancer accounts for less than 1% of all cancers. But this is a disease with severe consequences and a high mortality rate. Especially these are hip cancer symptoms https://myallamericanhospice.com/bone-cancer-symptoms/

  Hip cancer is characterized by early metastasis, aggressive growth. Hip sarcoma is diagnosed at any age
