Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer in which cancer develops in plasma cells (the cells that make antibodies). It mainly occurs in older adults. Anemia, kidney failure, bone pain, and repeated fractures are characteristic symptoms. If you develop bone pain, repeated fractures of unknown cause, or anemia, please consult a hematology-oncology specialist.2026-06-26
