Detailed explanation-1: -Secondary breast cancer in the bone may mean the affected bones are weakened, which can increase the risk of a fracture. If a bone has fractured you may need surgery to try to repair the fracture. You may also be given drug treatment to stop this happening in the future.

Detailed explanation-2: -When cancer cells spread to the bones (bone metastases), they can cause many problems such as pain, broken bones, or more serious problems. Almost all cancers can spread to the bone, but cancers that often spread there include breast, lung, prostate, kidney, melanoma, ovarian, and thyroid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Metastatic breast cancer can develop when breast cancer cells break away from the primary tumor and enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system. These systems carry fluids around the body. The cancer cells are able to travel in the fluids far from the original tumor.
