A member asked:
When person has hip and back pain and has prostate cancer, could it mean back and hip bones have malignancy?

Possibly: Keep in mind common things are common, so pain could be due to non-cancer causes, but if a man is at risk for metastatic prostate cance a bone scan can be done to evaluate potential sites of bone metastasis.

Possibly: Metastatic involvement of pelvic bones is commonly seen with prostate cancer.
