Is bone cancer contagious?

Bone cancer refers to the skeletal system, which, like other organs, can be affected by tumors from any tissue component or metastatic lesions from other organs. It is very difficult to treat and causes great pain to patients. So, is bone cancer contagious? The following is a detailed introduction to whether bone cancer is contagious.

The answer is yes, bone cancer is not contagious. In fact, this question is unnecessary. Cancer is not contagious, but there is a small possibility of hereditary disease. Please see the following introduction for details.

Bones are the support of the human body and are important tissues that are involved in human movement. Although bones are an important part of the body and can be seen on almost every X-ray, bone cancer is rarely discovered accidentally. Osteomas can be divided into three types: benign osteoma, low-grade malignant osteoma, and high-grade malignant osteoma. Benign osteoma is not fatal to the human body, but malignant osteoma has abnormal cancer cells in its tissues that are fatal to the human body and can spread to other tissues and organs. Benign osteoma can sometimes turn into malignant bone cancer.

The real cause of bone cancer is still unclear, but it may be related to factors such as excessive bone growth, chronic inflammation, metabolic problems, radiation, etc. There are also a small number of cases where the disease is inherited.

Pathological types of bone cancer include multiple myeloma, osteosarcoma, soft tissue sarcoma, fibrosarcoma, etc. The most common symptom of malignant bone cancer is metastasis to the bones, especially in the spine and pelvic bones.

Based on the above introduction to bone cancer, you can rest assured that bone cancer is absolutely not contagious. However, for the sake of everyone's health, we would like to remind you that it is very necessary to do more exercises that are beneficial to bones and supplement calcium.
