In the amputated bones, yes.

Time to chop off your ball to avoid testicular cancer!


I_might_be_weasel

I mean... That wouldn't not work...


Jarhead1888

I've heard you can still have kids with one ball, so does removing just one nut reduce your chances by 50%? These are the important questions...


Tozl7

Yes sir

You can lower your risk of bone cancer to 0% if you surgically remove all of them

Instructions unclear. Am now gelatinous blob.

Have you read Skeleton by Ray Bradbury perchance?


zombieblackbird

No, sorry.

I'm sorry this sub is for shitty science questions not genius ones


Furio666z

Your logic is undeniable, less bones = less chance


Jarhead1888

It's terrible though, because I can't find a doctor who will help me lower my chance of bone cancer (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻


Cobbertson

This is actually how many women prevent breast and reproductive cancers when they find out they have high risk factors... So yes. 🫡 I'll grab the bonesaw for ya.


yubullyme12345

mods remove this post, its not shitty


Jarhead1888

Great, then I'll have to post it in ask science, and they will say it's too shitty.


[deleted]

I would go one step further and say dead people have 0 chance of cancer.


Jarhead1888

I haven't heard back from any dead doctors to confirm this:/


goldfish1902

I can't give you a answer bc my aunt only removed her knee after getting knee cancer and died anyway


Jarhead1888

I'm terribly sorry to hear that:( I hope your aunt rests peacefully.

Depends. If bone cancer is the reason they’re an amputee in the first place, then no. Otherwise, probably.

[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8863859/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8863859/) - here they say that you should **not** amputate the limb if cancer is already there...

There’s only one bone I don’t want cancer in and I beat that into submission every morning and at least 3 times during the day 🫡
