Link between Lung Cancer and Arthritis of the Knee?
Filed under: Natural Remedies — admin @ 3:52 am
A report from the Annals of Rheumatic Disease stated that in a study
with over 6,000 patients suffering from various rheumatic disorders during 2005,
approximately 5% had arthritis of the knee. And approximately 2% of them had cell
lung cancer (small cell). These were men in middle age who had smoked heavily
throughout their lives.
After surgery on their cancer, where the cancerous areas were removed, the knee arthritis went away.
This type of cancer in about a fifth of cases, spreads to the bone structure.
The study stated that no actual link had yet been established between the two diseases.
