What are the symptoms of metastatic breast cancer in bones?
Signs and symptoms are different in people. It depends on where cancer moves to and how large the tumors are.
Pain
Bone pain from breast cancer metastasis can be persistent. It may exacerbate when you’re active and typically doesn’t let up when you rest. It makes you unable to get adequate sleep.
Bone fracture
Bones are greatly affected by Cancer. They get weak, fragile, and more susceptible to fracture [1]. Sudden, severe bone pain can be caused by a fracture, even after a minor injury.
Compressed spinal cord
Cancer in your spine increases the pressure on nerves. This can lead to back or neck pain. It can also lead to numbness or weakness in your legs, as well as bladder and bowel concerns.
