What are the symptoms of osteosarcoma

Friends who usually experience pain between bones need to pay attention, because these are often symptoms of osteosarcoma. Osteosarcoma is quite painful for patients as the symptoms continue to appear. So, what are the symptoms of osteosarcoma? Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

First, the patient will feel pain. Before the tumor appears, the patient will find intermittent pain in the bones, which gradually turns into continuous severe pain, especially at night. If it is a malignant osteosarcoma, then the pain will be more severe, making the patient feel miserable. This can be said to be the earliest symptom of osteosarcoma. This is also a critical stage. If the patient has this phenomenon, he should go to a regular hospital for treatment as soon as possible and do not delay the condition.

Secondly, patients will find lumps on their bodies. Osteosarcoma patients will find local lumps in some painful areas of their hands and feet, and these lumps will hurt when pressed.

Then, limping will occur. As the disease progresses and worsens, the patient will experience pain in the hands, feet and ankles, and feel difficulty in movement, a feeling of restriction and oppression, and even muscle atrophy, which will cause limping when walking.

Finally, the whole body will show a decline in health. For example, fever, feeling unreal, weight loss, anemia, etc. Even in severe cases, lung metastasis will occur, leading to a sudden deterioration of the whole body condition.

At present, the etiology of osteosarcoma is unclear, the causes are complex, and this disease is particularly harmful to the quality of life and life, so we should pay great attention to it. Therefore, parents with children and teenagers at home should always pay attention to their children. If they find pain around the knee joint without obvious trauma, they should go to a regular hospital for examination as soon as possible, which is conducive to early detection, early treatment, and improved survival rate.
