What are the eight signs that appear in the body before a brain tumor occurs?

The cranial cavity is a relatively closed cavity, and after the tumor grows in the brain, the growth of the tumor increases the contents of the cranial cavity, causing symptoms caused by increased intracranial pressure, which we call the symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. When people have headaches, vomiting and persistent attacks and paroxysmal aggravation, it is necessary to consider whether there is a possibility of increased intracranial pressure, and should seek medical attention in time for focal symptoms: in addition to the symptoms of high intracranial pressure caused by tumors, due to the different parts of tumor growth, some focal symptoms of frontal lobe tumors can be caused

Problems with speech expression, mental status, movement, tumors of the parietal lobe: impairment of sensation in one limbTumors of the occipital lobe: visual disturbances, such as visual hallucinations, visual field defects and other pituitary tumors:

Endocrine disorders, female patients are mostly menstrual disorders, amenorrhea, galactorrhea, and men have decreased sexual function, hair loss, vision loss and other brainstem tumors: eye movements, dysphagia, hoarseness and facial sensory disorders. Doctor advises:

If you find that you have the above symptoms of brain tumor after surgery, please go to a regular hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible, and be sure to find it in time, and don't miss the best period.

1.Headache after waking up. 2.

Weakness of the hands and feet, even hemiplegia. 3.Blurred vision.

4.Loss of the sense of smell. 5.

Tinnitus, hearing loss. 6.Facial muscle spasms.

7.Epilepsy. 8.

Abnormal mental behavior, memory loss, slow reactions.

There are two cases of brain tumors, one is a metastatic brain tumor, which may be malignant, some are round square brain tumors, may be malignant, may be cold, and some of the initial headache symptoms are getting more and more serious, the headache is severe, vomiting, nausea, the body is gradually emaciated, and the resistance is gradually decreasing.

What is a tumor? To put it simply, it is a new organism formed by the proliferation of local tissue cells under the action of various internal and external factors. Obviously, the tumor is not foreign, but your body's own tissue cells, of course, the tumor is no longer a normal tissue cell.

However, tumors are divided into benign and malignant, and the difference between benign tumor cells and normal cells is not too big, but malignant tumors are obviously abnormal, and the degree of abnormality reflects the degree of differentiation of the tumor, the lower the differentiation, the farther away from normal cells, therefore, the morphological observation of highly differentiated tumors under the microscope can well know the best tissue cells (primary foci), and low-differentiation, especially undifferentiated tumors, it is difficult to identify the primary foci from morphology, and it is usually necessary to use immunohistochemistry and or genetic testing and analysis to distinguish the best places.

Some people feel a lump on their body and say that they have a tumor. Of course, this is not true, a mass is not necessarily a tumor, for example, a mass formed by a hematoma is not a tumor; An inflammatory mass is also not a tumor. And if the mass is cancer, it is even more wrong, because there is a difference between benign tumor and malignant tumor, malignant tumor is cancer, and the mass may be a non-neoplastic lesion (hematoma, inflammatory mass, etc.), a benign tumor, or a malignant tumor (cancer).

What exactly is this, this is based on the medical history, physical examination, imaging tests, and if necessary, biopsy of the pathology to confirm the diagnosis.

It is often the main reason for patients to visit the clinic and an important basis for diagnosing tumors. On examination, a mass may be found on the surface of the body or palpable in the depths, or an organ (eg, liver, thyroid) or lymphadenopathy may be found. In general, benign tumors grow more slowly, have well-defined borders, and have a smooth, motile surface.

Malignant tumors grow rapidly, the surface is convex and uneven, not easy to move over, and the boundaries are not clear. Tumors that occur in deep organs in body cavities are generally difficult to detect and can only be detected when the tumor causes symptoms of compression, blockage, or destruction of the organ in which it is located. For example, when the mediastinal mass compresses the superior vena cava and causes reflux disorder, the patient has symptoms such as swelling of the head, face, neck, and upper chest wall, distension of the chest wall and neck veins, shortness of breath, and cyanosis.

Neither benign nor malignant tumors can control mass growth with general anti-infective**, topical medications, or physiotherapy.

Why are tumors already very serious when they are found? Many patients and family members may have such questions, in fact, most brain tumors have symptoms in the early stage of the disease, but many people will mistakenly think that it is just some "minor diseases, and they don't pay attention to it, so they miss it."

Headache is the most common symptom.

The causes of brain tumors are not well understood, and there are both genetic causes and acquired environmental factors, including smoking, alcohol consumption, high blood pressure, diabetes, viruses, etc. In addition, excess radiation may also be a cause of brain tumors.

Brain tumors may be difficult to prevent, but early detection and early detection can minimize the harm of brain tumors. "One of the most common red flags of brain tumors is headaches. The headache of brain tumor patients mostly occurs in the second half of the night and early morning, especially after waking up in the morning, the pain is obvious, and the pain is gradually relieved or disappeared after getting up and moving.

Headaches are usually intermittent and present as throbbing pain and swelling pain, with each episode lasting minutes or hours. As the tumor continues to grow, the pain worsens, accompanied by projectile vomiting, and headaches that worsen when coughing, sneezing, and having a bowel movement.

Some patients have vision loss, thinking it is myopia or presbyopia, and neglect further examination, some go to the ophthalmologist, and an experienced ophthalmologist may think of an intracranial problem, do an MRI, and find an intracranial tumor.

It is also common for brain tumors to compress the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss and double vision. If it is found that the vision develops rapidly in a short period of time, or suddenly appears at a certain time, and no abnormality is found in the ophthalmology, it can be further ruled out that the brain tumor is compressing the optic nerve and causing the loss of vision.

The most common are sellar tumors, such as pituitary tumors, craniopharyngiomas, meningiomas, and less common ones such as cholesteatomas, arachnoid cysts, etc., which will cause bilateral vision loss due to compression of bilateral optic nerves, and some are more obvious on one side. Sphenoid crest meningiomas tend to affect one optic nerve. Others, such as anterior skull base tumors, hypothalamic tumors, can also cause vision loss.

The brain is the most important organ of the human body, it governs the language, movement and other functions of our human body, once there is a tumor in the head, with the increase of tumor volume, according to the different location of the tumor growth, it will gradually compress the nerves and blood vessels, and the patient will then have a series of symptoms: headache, dizziness, vision loss, tinnitus, hearing loss, vomiting, etc. Long-term compression of the nervous system can lead to damage to intracranial brain tissue, which can have a significant impact on the quality of life of patients.

When it comes to brain tumors, most people think of them as scary and incurable. In fact, brain tumors are also divided into benign tumors and malignant tumors. Many benign tumors are not so terrible, and after surgical resection, they usually do not **, and the prognosis is very good.

When the body is unwell, do not shy away from the disease, go to the hospital for examination in time, and be clear, so as not to miss the early diagnosis and the best time.

Tumors that grow inside the body are not easy to find, including those in the brain. Brain tumour is actually a common neurosurgical disease, but most people don't associate it with themselves or their family and friends. As a result, it is difficult to detect them at an early stage.

Zhang Liwei, an expert in brain tumors, vice president of Beijing Tiantan Hospital and chief physician of neurosurgery, pointed out that in general, brain tumors often cause headaches. This headache may be dull, dull, or tingling or swollen. If these headaches persist for more than 2 weeks, they will flare up from time to time, and the following 4 abnormalities appear on the head, you should be alert to whether it is a brain tumor.

1.Toothache

Few people associate a toothache with a disease other than stomatology, but in fact, it can be caused by a brain tumor pressing on the trigeminal nerve, so no matter how many anti-inflammatory drugs or painkillers you take, you still get a toothache.

2.Tinnitus

The central nervous system in the brain is the most important part of the nervous system of the whole body, which receives the information transmitted by the nerves of various parts of the body and is in charge of the nerves of different parts of the body. Among them, the temporal lobe is the innervator of hearing, if there is a tumor in the temporal lobe, or if the tumor in other parts compresses the temporal lobe, tinnitus will occur, especially unilateral tinnitus, and the patient may hear various noises such as cicadas, birdsong, and buzzing.

3.Changes in vision

The temporal lobe innervates auditory function, while the occipital lobe innervates vision, if there is a tumor in the occipital lobe, or if a tumor in other parts compresses the occipital lobe, there will be changes in vision, such as tubular vision, whether you look at it far or closely, your vision is gradually decreasing, your vision is blurred, and even you are blind.

4.Olfactory changes

When a brain tumour affects the olfactory nerve in the olfactory groove, the sense of smell changes, such as the gradual decline or loss of the sense of smell, or the ability to smell odors that others cannot smell.

Tumors that grow inside the body are not easy to find, including those in the brain. Brain tumour is actually a common neurosurgical disease, but most people don't associate it with themselves or their family and friends. As a result, it is difficult to detect them at an early stage.

Zhang Liwei, an expert in brain tumors, vice president of Beijing Tiantan Hospital and chief physician of neurosurgery, pointed out that in general, brain tumors often cause headaches. This headache may be dull, dull, or tingling or swollen. If these headaches persist for more than 2 weeks, they will flare up from time to time, and the following 4 abnormalities appear on the head, you should be alert to whether it is a brain tumor.

Toothache is also relatively sluggish, and at the same time, memory is also reduced, there will be some abnormalities in the spirit, and often fever and indigestion, nausea and vomiting phenomenon, indicating that there is a tumor in the head.

If there is a tumor in the head, then there will be a headache, and then it will be accompanied by a toothache, and the memory will also be reduced, and at the same time, every move will be very sluggish, and there may be fever, vomiting.

Headache; decreased visual acuity, visual field defects; Tinnitushearing loss; Dizzy; Loss of appetite.

The early symptoms of brain tumors are subtle and usually manifest as headaches, dizziness, and are often mistaken for sleep deprivation or neurasthenia. When the disease progresses to the middle and advanced stages, people develop epilepsy, paralysis, aphasia, or other impaired consciousness. If you don't know your condition, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to check the dizziness, if it is really a brain tumor, early detection of early ** patients can recover their health.

Frequent dizziness and sometimes fainting.

I have seen many kinds of symptoms, but the most incredible one is that a lady in the ward had only one day of period, and it was found that it was caused by a brain tumor. There are a lot of blind people, and there is a twelve-year-old boy with a beard who looks like he is twenty-two, which is also caused by a brain tumor. I feel that the symptoms are varied, if I feel unwell, it is better to do an MRI or other examination, and if there is a problem, I can also do it in time**.

This is important.

Symptoms of Brain Tumor:1Vision gradually blurs, and the field of vision gradually narrows:

This is because brain tumours cause increased pressure in the brain, which compresses the optic nerve, resulting in blurred vision and misty and unrealistic vision. As for the loss of vision, it is mostly on both sides, as if it is covered by a curtain. A small number of elderly patients with poor vision do not improve their vision after cataract surgery, also because of brain tumors.

2.Deformed eye appearance: including drooping eyelids, protruding eyes, and inability to look out of the eyes, etc., because the cranial nerves responsible for eye movements are damaged, and the problem is in the brain but not in the eyes.

3.Unilateral hearing deterioration: First the balance and auditory nerve (eighth cranial nerve) are compressed, there are paroxysmal tinnitus, hearing gradually deteriorates, which may be accompanied by ipsilateral facial numbness, and then the trigeminal nerve (fifth cranial nerve) responsible for facial sensation in the brainstem and the glossopharyngeal nerve responsible for swallowing (eleventh cranial nerve) are compressed, resulting in dysphagia, unsteady gait, and even blurred vision, which is a symptom caused by typical acoustic neuroma.

4.Difficulty swallowing and unsteady gait: Swallowing food (especially fluids) often chokes, hoarseness, inability to speak loudly, tightness in the lower limbs, inability to stride away, and easy falling.

These are symptoms caused by tumors in the posterior fossa that compress the glossopharyngeal nerve (eleventh cranial nerve) and the brainstem.

5.Unilateral limb numbness or weakness: Symptoms similar to those of a stroke, but not as rapid as a stroke, but gradual. This is caused by compression of the pyramidal tract system in the brain, which is responsible for motor function.

7.Hormonal abnormalities: unexplained menopause and excessive milk production in young women; The hands, feet, nose, and chin slowly become larger, and the shoes gradually become unwearable; Moon face, buffalo shoulders, enlarged body, and thin limbs may all be caused by abnormal hormone secretion by pituitary adenoma.

8.Seizures: Some brain tumors are manifested in the form of epilepsy: twitching of the corners of the mouth, spasms of the hands and feet, followed by generalized seizures.
