Bone Joint Pain

LUKEMIA or NEUROBLASTOMA or BONE CANCER

Leukemia is when any of
several cancers of the bone marrow
that prevent the normal manufacture of red and white blood cells and platelets, resulting in anemia, increased susceptibility to infection, and impaired blood clotting.
Neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor of immature nerve cells that usually starts in the autonomic nervous system or adrenal gland and spreads quickly, most often, affecting young children. Primary bone cancer is a rare type of cancer that begins in the bones. This is a separate condition from secondary bone cancer, which is cancer that spreads to the bones after developing in another part
of the body.
