Signs of a brain tumor

Many of us have headaches, but if such pains are constant, then you should immediately go to the doctor, because the main symptom of brain cancer is just incessant headaches. This occurs in half of the patients, and the other half does not complain about anything, but one day dies for no reason, and then only an autopsy reveals the cause of the misfortune.

One of the most common brain tumors is glioblastoma. The manifestations of the symptoms of such a group of formations depend on the location. If the tumor is located on the cerebral cortex, then the patient develops a number of changes in the state of health, namely, speech impairment, impaired coordination of movement and fainting. However, when education is located in the depths of the brain, a person will not feel such vivid symptoms. Sometimes, with a tumor, olfactory hallucinations can occur — a person seems to have some kind of smell, and the food can change its taste.

Headaches in oncology are permanent, not amenable to pain relief. Pains are unbearable, especially in the morning. A headache with a tumor increases with physical exertion, changes in body position, and coughing. Treatment of brain tumors is the only way out of the situation and you should immediately contact a specialist.

Dizziness can occur in the patient both in a sitting or standing position, and in a supine position..

Along with the headache, nausea and vomiting may appear, and they do not depend on food intake.

Violation of the organs. As the tumor grows, nerves that are responsible for hearing, speaking, or seeing can be pinched. At the same time, an oncological patient can quickly go deaf or have difficulty in pronouncing some words..

Mental or psychiatric disorders can also be signs of brain cancer. The patient may not recognize relatives, not understand where he is, what is going on around him, cannot name simple objects, cannot say with closed eyes, or raise or lower a hand. Hallucinations may also appear in the form of a non-existent smell, sounds, or flashes of light. Sometimes patients have a horizontally running pupil, although they do not notice it.
