Bone metastasis happens when cancer cells from other organs spread to the bones. This can cause many problems and difficulties, such as broken bones and pain. Of all the types of cancer, most of them can spread to the bones, yet there are some that are mainly known to do so.
Bone metastasis can appear in any bone but is more common in the upper leg bone (femur), the ribs, the skull, the hip bone, or the upper arm bone. When you have bone cancer, your body is either making too much bone or breaking it down too fast. Both of these sudden changes can make your bones break more easily.
