Myeloma, also known as multiple myeloma, is a type of cancer that originates in the plasma cells of bone marrow. These abnormal cells crowd out healthy ones and interfere with the body’s ability to fight infections, causing bone pain, fatigue, and frequent illnesses. At Dr Mishil Parikh’s clinic in Mumbai, emphasis is placed on early detection and effective management of this complex condition.
The signs of myeloma often include persistent bone pain, frequent fractures, kidney problems, or recurrent infections. Because these symptoms resemble other health issues, diagnosis is often delayed. Specialized blood tests, imaging, and bone marrow biopsies are used to confirm the disease. Treatments today combine medication, targeted therapies, stem cell transplants, and supportive care to improve patient outcomes.
Without proper treatment, myeloma can weaken the bones and compromise immunity. Taking action at the right time ensures better control and longer survival.
If you are experiencing unexplained bone pain or frequent infections, don’t ignore the warning signs schedule a consultation today.
