Pain
Causes & Contributing Factors
Cancer and cancer treatments cause pain by damaging tissues and nerves and by increasing inflammation. The resulting pain can contribute to cancer-related fatigue by causing physical and emotional stress and by disrupting physical activity behaviour, mental alertness, and sleep.
