The symptoms of brain tumor vary from patient to patient, and
most of these symptoms can also be found in people without brain tumors.
So the only way to know if you really have a brain tumor or not is to
consult your doctor and get a brain scan.
Headache is the symptom
that is common with 46% of patients with tumors. They described this
headache in a different way and no reason is a sure sign of a brain
tumor for many. Perhaps most people have headaches at some point in
their lives, so it is not sure sign of brain tumors. You should talk to
your doctor if your headaches are different than you've ever had, with
nausea / vomiting, aggravated by bending or effort to go to the
bathroom.
Seizures: This was the second most common symptom
reported, with 33% of patients reporting a seizure before the diagnosis
was made. Seizures can be caused by other things, such high fever, as
epilepsy, stroke, trauma and other disorders. This is a symptom that
should never be ignored, whatever the cause. In a person who has never
had a seizure before, it usually indicates something serious and you
should get a brain scan.
A crisis is a sudden and involuntary
change in behavior, muscle control, consciousness, and / or sensation.
Symptoms can vary from attack and sudden loss of consciousness total
agitation of the violent shaking or slight shaking of a limb. A person
can experience blurred vision, slurred speech or staring into space and
doing other odd behaviors, while having a seizure. About 10% of United
States population will experience a single seizure in their lives.
Nausea
and Vomiting: As with headaches, these are non-specific - meaning that
most people who have nausea and vomiting do not have a brain tumor.
Twenty-two percent of our respondents said nausea / vomiting as a
symptom.
Nausea and / or vomiting are more likely to look for a brain tumor which is accompanied by other symptoms mentioned here.
Vision
problems or hearing: Twenty-five percent reported vision problems
first. It is not easy if you have a problem with your hearing or sight,
to be extracted. I have often heard that the eye doctor is the first to
make diagnoses. When you look in your eyes, sometimes you can see the
signs more. Intracranial pressure, because it must be studied.
Problems
with the weakness of the arms, legs and facial muscles, and strange
sensations in the head or hands: Twenty-five percent reported weakness
in the arms or legs. Sixteen percent expressed feelings of weird and
strange sensations in there head. This can lead to an altered gait,
falling objects, falls, or asymmetric facial expression. These can be
symptoms of a stroke. Sudden onset of symptoms is an emergency - you
should go to medical emergencies. If you notice a gradual change over
time, you should know.
