How Cancer Can Cause Spine Fractures

Fragile bones in the spine

Cancer cells can infiltrate vertebral structures, stripping the bone of its natural density and structural integrity.

Increased risk of fractures

Weakened vertebrae can collapse under normal body weight or minor movements, leading to compression fractures.

Pain even without injury

Unlike typical trauma, these fractures can occur spontaneously, causing persistent and debilitating discomfort.
