What Is Bone Cancer And How Ayurveda Will Help You To Vanquish It

You are made up of cells that divide and increase on a daily basis. Cells generally die when they become dysfunctional or old. Cancer occurs when something starts to go wrong in this cycle, causing your cells to keep producing new cells while the old or malfunctioning ones do not die as they should. When cancer cells proliferate uncontrollably, they might push out normal cells. This impairs your body's ability to function normally. Cancer can develop from any part of your body, some parts are the commonest, some the rarest.

Bone cancer is a relatively rare kind of cancer. Most of the time, cancer does not originate in the bones; instead, it spreads from other regions of the body, such as the breast, lungs, or prostate, and is termed secondary breast CA. Cancer cells extracted from the bone might resemble the organ from which they came. Bone tumors don't have to be malignant all of the time. It may be a benign growth, which happens around half of the time. When cancer arises from the bone itself, it is referred to as primary bone cancer.
