Brain tumors can cause a variety of symptoms, and the specific symptoms depend on the size, location, and type of tumor. Some people with a brain tumor may not experience any symptoms, especially if the tumor is small. However, common signs and symptoms of a brain tumor include:

• Headaches: Headaches that are worse in the morning, happen more often, and seem more severe than usual.

• Seizures: Seizures can occur with or without the loss of consciousness and/or bodily function.

• Nausea and vomiting: These symptoms can occur due to the pressure of the tumor on the brain or spinal cord.

• Changes in vision, hearing, or smell: These changes can occur when the tumor affects the optic pathway, which is responsible for sight, or other parts of the brain that control hearing or smell.

• Loss of balance and coordination: This can occur when the tumor is located in the cerebellum at the back of the head.

• Numbness or weakness: This can occur when the tumor places pressure on the brain or spinal cord.

• Fatigue: Prolonged, unexplained fatigue can be a symptom of a brain tumor.

• Changes in mood or personality: These changes can include aggressiveness, confusion, disorientation, and difficulty sleeping.

• Difficulty thinking, speaking, or finding words: This can occur when a specific part of the brain is not working well because of the tumor.

• Difficulty swallowing, facial weakness or numbness, or double vision: These symptoms can occur when the tumor is located in the brain stem.

Its important to see a healthcare provider if you experience any of these symptoms, especially if they are new or getting worse over time.
