Overview

The most common symptoms of Ewing's sarcoma include localized bone pain, swelling, fever, loss of appetite, and weight loss. The affected bone is not as strong as normal bones and may fracture with minor trauma (a pathological fracture).

• Localized pain

• Ewing's sarcoma typically progresses very rapidly. The pain can escalate from mild to intense in a very short period of time.

• Paresthesia
• Localized swelling
• Intermittent fever
