- 4. Bone tumor or organ tumor metastasis
- Bone tumors or tumors of other organs, such as kidney, bladder, uterus, lung and other tumors, can cause shoulder and back pain caused by metastases to the scapula, vertebrae, and ribs.
Differential diagnosis of shoulder and back pain
- Shoulder and back muscle pain

The onset of pain is often related to dietary factors. Ultrasound and gastrointestinal angiography can confirm the diagnosis.
- 6. Bone tumor or organ tumor metastasis
- Identification points: The primary disease can be traced or traced back to the history of primary surgery. The pain symptoms continued to increase, and some patients could touch the mass. X-ray examination can find cancerous osteolytic or bone occupying lesions on the shoulder and back.
