Brain tumors are lumps or growths of abnormal cells that form in the brain or other tissue and structures of a kid. Brain tumors come in a variety of shapes and sizes, some of which are benign (noncancerous) and others which are cancerous.
The skull protects the brain, but if a tumor forms in the brain, it adds to the limited space in the skull, increasing the pressure in the brain and causing symptoms. Although the great majority of brain tumors are non-cancerous, they always induce pressure within the brain, regardless of their kind.
One of the most common signs of brain tumors in children is frequent headaches, especially in the morning, which are typically accompanied by nausea and vomiting. This headache might be a sign of increasing cerebral pressure. Aside from that, in younger generations, the first episode of epilepsy or seizure, which is caused by inflammation inside the brain, can also be an early indicator of brain tumors.
A gradual loss of important senses such as hearing, vision, or even smell might be a sign of a brain tumor. These early signs are quite prominent in CPE brain tumors that cause long-term damage to the body. Most individuals choose to disregard these stories in the early stages, which may include twitching on one side of the face or weakness and paralysis on one side of the body.
Other indications and symptoms that may be present, depending on the location of the tumor, include seizures, abnormal eye movement, slurring of speech, walking problems, instability, weakness, or drooping on one side of the face. Personality or behavioural changes, as well as changes in memory or forgetfulness.
