If you develop signs or symptoms that may indicate bone cancer, such as unexplained bone pain. This may not necessarily mean you have bone cancer but it is always safer to determine if the tumor is cancerous or not. Bone pain is most commonly caused by injury or arthritis, and most bone tumors are benign.
