10 Ewing's Sarcoma Symptoms
Symptom #8: Paralysis
Ewing’s sarcoma can affect any part of the body. If a tumor occurs in a part of the spinal cord or any area near the spine, it can be very dangerous. Tumors, even benign tumors, are quite dangerous. This is because they either obstruct or compress vital areas. The spinal cord is the nerve center providing the whole body with nerve supply.
Treatment should commence as soon as possible for sarcomas in any area near the spinal cord. This will prevent interference with nerve signals to or from any area of the body. If, for instance, a tumor pressurizes the spinal area containing nerves connected to the chest, it may lead to paralysis of the chest muscles and inability to breathe. The same can happen to other parts of the body.
