About Sarcoma
According to Mayo Clinic, Sarcoma was a type of cancer that can occur in different locations in one’s body.
Although it’s unclear what causes this disease, Mayo Clinic cited that there were a lot of factors that can increase the risk of having a sarcoma, including exposure to viruses, chronic swelling, radiation therapy for cancer, exposure to chemicals, and inherited syndromes.
Also, Mayo Clinic also mentioned the signs and symptoms of having a sarcoma, such as bone pain, weight loss, abdominal pain, a broken bone that happened suddenly, and a lump that can be felt through one’s skin that may or may not be painful.
