Hello. : Hello. Was the impression bursitis? Sometimes, not always. Consider a woman with a small breast cancer in her breast which has not spread. Her blood work and her xrays may be normal. However a mammogram or ultrasound could be helpful in visualizing it.

Not necessarily : If the problem is in or near a joint and two specialists said bursitis, cancer should not be a concern. What symptoms do you have and what makes you think it may be cancer? Wish you good health.
