Dr. Himanshu Rohela (Consultant, Orthopaedic Oncology, RGCIRC) emphasised that persistent bone pain should not always be dismissed as ageing, exercise, or a minor injury, especially if it lasts for weeks, worsens at night, recurs in the same location, or is associated with swelling or restricted movement. He highlighted that while these symptoms are often due to non-cancerous conditions, they can occasionally indicate bone sarcoma or metastatic cancer, making timely medical evaluation and appropriate imaging essential for early diagnosis and effective treatment.
