When your child has been diagnosed with a rare disease, what is one of the first things you do when you want to know more? "Google it!" July is Sarcoma Awareness Month, this week we are examining Ewing Sarcoma. According the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, rated number 1 in Children's Cancer Hospitals, Ewing sarcoma symptoms can be non-specific and mimic other more common ailments. While symptoms vary from child to child, the most common include: Sporadic bone pain of varying intensity Localized pain around the site of the tumor Limp or limited range of motion in the affected area Swelling Redness around the site of the tumor Fever of unknown cause Decreased appetite Weight loss Fatigue Numbness, tingling, or weakness (symptoms related to nerve compression caused by the tumor) Loss of bowel and bladder function (if the tumor is in the spinal region) Because many of these symptoms can also point to other conditions, it's essential to have your child evaluated by a qualified medical professional right away. #ChildhoodCancer More information is available at dana-farber.org/childhood-ew…
