A mad man drops a rock into water well, so that thousand wise men can not take it out.. (Azerbaijani proverb).
In addition to neck and back pain, other common spinal tumor symptoms to be watchful for include: 1  Weakness or numbness in the arms, legs or chest area. 2  Walking or standing difficulties. 3  A general loss of sensation throughout the body. 4  A loss of bladder or bowel control.
The most common symptom is pain, although not all of these tumors produce symptoms. Pain is typically the result of a large hemangioma involving the entire vertebra. The tumor may also have caused the bone to collapse and become shorter. If the collapsing is severe, the spinal cord or nerves will cause severe pain, which can also cause a loss of ability to control the legs, bowel or bladder.
