(2) The pain symptoms are persistently aggravated, and some patients can reach the mass.

(3) X-ray examination can be found in the shoulder and back with cancerous osteolysis or bone occupying lesions.

Differential diagnosis

(2) Pain attacks are often associated with dietary factors.

(3) Ultrasound and gastrointestinal angiography can confirm the diagnosis.

Bone tumor or organ tumor metastasis

Bone tumors or other organ tumors, such as kidney, bladder, uterus, lung and other tumors, can be transferred to the shoulder blades, vertebral bones, ribs can cause shoulder and back pain.

(1) Generally, the primary disease can be traced or traced back to the history of primary tumor surgery.

(2) The pain symptoms are persistently aggravated, and some patients can reach the mass.
