Understanding the reasons for cancer pain can help when working out the best way to manage the pain. Cancer pain may be caused by: • cancer pressing on nerves or soft tissue in the body • side effects of treatment, such as radiotherapy or surgery • a bone fracture • cancer in the bone • infection • a blood clot caused by cancer or its treatment • a blockage in the bowel. Pain may also be due to other medical conditions that have nothing to do with the cancer.
