Answer 1

OK - Good Question - I saw a lot of this in my medical oncology practice.
- Any metastatic cancer (spread to) bone
The most common ones I saw were breast cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer.
Head and Neck cancers can involve bone. These are usually squamous cell Ca's.
- Primary Cancers of the bone such as osterosarcoma
- Ewings Sarcoma
- Malignancies of the bone marrow such a multiple myeloma, some leukemias and lymphomas including Hodgkin's disease, and some myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic disorders
- Malignant melanomas commonly go to bone while usually gastrointestinal cancers do not - though pancreatic cancer can cause bone pain usually in the spine
- Kidney cancers certainly can go to bone
- Some soft tissue sarcomas can involve the bone and cause pain.
- Uterine cancer, Ovarian cancers, Cervical cancers
- Testicular cancers : Various types
- Non-melanoma skin cancers can involve underlying bone
- Anal Cancers : Squamous and embryonal cell
- Rectal cancers : Squamous cell and adenocarcinomas
If you want to stretch the cancer list you could split up the types of each cancer. For lung cancers that spread to bone you could list squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and oat cell carcinoma - all originating in the lung.
You can subtype various cancers on and on - the list of various lymphoma subtypes is extensive, but this may be more than you really want.
For non-cancer causes :
Don't forget "growth pains" which can be bone pain in adolescents in their growth spurt.
And "Shin splints" which might be related to some microvascular insufficiency or unknown causes.
Sickle Cell anemia commonly causes severe bone pains
Aching bones are a common complaint with influenza and other systemic infectious diseases.
Dengue fever is also known as "Break Bone Fever" - a viral illness transmitted by mosquitoes. (See reference below if interested)
Also infection of the bone itself - osteomyelitis
Look into infectious diseases and you will fill you list quickly.
Just about any systemic infection can cause bone pain.
Malaria, tuberculosis . . . the list is huge.
