If you try to treat your back pain at home but find it only lasts for a few weeks, you should see your doctor, the NHS says, according to the newspaper express. And the Mayo Clinic website said that back pain is a sign of spinal cancer, or it is an early sign and may spread over time to another place, as the pain may also spread to the hips, legs, feet, or arms, and it may worsen over time even if you are being treated.
Back pain may be the main sign of spinal cancer, but numbness, weakness, poor coordination of the arms and legs, and paralysis may also be symptoms.
He pointed out that lung cancer is another common type of cancer that may cause back pain, and the main signs of lung cancer include coughing up blood, persistent shortness of breath, a prolonged cough that gets worse, and a cough that lasts for two weeks or more.
The disease is broadly divided into two groups: non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer.
Small cell lung cancer is the most common form and has higher survival rates than small cell lung cancer.
Your risk of developing it can be reduced by making several important lifestyle changes.
Eating a healthy diet full of fruits and vegetables, getting regular exercise, and not smoking will significantly reduce your risk.
