Thanks for your question on HCM.
Bone tumours are very painful. And radiotherapy can cause more pain due to local tisdue necrosis.
In this type of malignancy, centrally acting pain killers are useful.
Morphine and rekated drugs are excellent pain killers and recommended for pain relief in malignancy.
You can use transdermal patch of fentanyl as this gives 72 hour relief from pain. It is very popular option for excruciating pain due to bone cancer.
Low dose sedative drugs are also useful in some cases.
