Thank You for your response. There is no real reason I was thinking cancer..  I was just wondering.  I would go back to the doctor but right now I do not have medical insurance and cannot afford the doctor visit.   The last time I was at the doctor I had some test done and was told that I don't have arthritis.

Thank You again...

Hi.

Is there any reason why you are considering cancer as the cause of your joint pains? Do you experience any other symptoms?

Joint pain can be caused by metastatic spread of cancer to the joints from other body sites. However, most common causes of joint pain are not related to cancer and are most likely related to bone and joint diseases such as bursitis, gout or arthritis, specifically rheumatoid arthritis, given your age and gender.

If you are concerned about this you should consult a physician at the earliest possible time to evaluate your symptoms.

Good luck.
