Cancer Pain Management Q & A

What causes cancer pain?

Cancer pain can develop from cancer itself as it invades your tissue or if a cancerous tumor pushes against your nerves, bones, or organs. In some cases, these tumors can also release pain-causing chemicals that lead to discomfort throughout your body.

If you’re already receiving treatment for cancer, such as radiation and/or chemotherapy, you may also be contributing to your chronic pain.

If you can no longer ease your pain with home care, you can schedule a consultation for pain management at Valley Medical and Wellness to learn more about available treatments.
