Recommendations for high-risk population, screening and prevention of bone tumors

High-risk objects
        Eight early signs of bone tumors:
        1. There are harder lumps in the joints of the bones, which cannot disappear at rest and continue to grow;
        2. Pain and swelling of bones and adjacent joints, which aggravate at night, and the severity of pain has nothing to do with activities;
        3. Fever, weight loss, mainly low-grade fever, and a significant increase in skin temperature at the swollen part, etc.;
        4. Unexplained persistent back pain or pain in the spine area, rest can not be relieved, it is difficult to explain with common cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylopathy;
        5. Numbness or stubborn radiating pain at the distal end of the limb, weakness, or even dysfunction;
        6. Pathological fracture or limb deformation, or even one or more spontaneous fractures with no obvious cause;
        7. Convulsions, muscle cramps, increased blood calcium;
        8. When middle-aged and elderly people have unexplained limb pain, low back pain, and have a tendency to worsen, they should be alert to the appearance of metastatic bone tumors, especially those with a history of tumors (especially those with late stage lung cancer, Breast cancer, prostate cancer, thyroid cancer, kidney cancer, etc.).
 
Screening recommendations
        Pay attention to the eight early signs of bone tumors, seek medical treatment in time if abnormalities occur, and perform physical examinations and imaging examinations, combined with biopsy when necessary. Especially patients with a history of malignant tumors, such as bone pain, nerve compression, and mobility disorders, should go to the Department of Bone and Soft Tissue Oncology and other relevant departments for further examination in time.
 
Prevention advice
        1. Avoid trauma;
        2. Increase outdoor exercise and sports, and maintain a reasonable weight;
        3. Reasonable diet;
        4. Avoid contact with radioactive materials;
        5. Control emotions and maintain a healthy and optimistic attitude.
