Signs and Symptoms of Brain Tumor and Cancer

Headaches : No one pattern of possible Brain tumor is being the sure shot for linking the headache with brain tumor. If the problem of headache is persistent for a longer period than there’s certainly a cause or worry for the neurosurgeon to assimilate the accompanied nausea/Vomiting at the time when body tries to bends or sufficient stress of the upper region of the brain is causing inconvenience with tight muscles or contraction of the veins, etc. Respiration process changes due to excess exertion.
Seizures/Convulsions : The outlook of seizure as a symptom for brain tumor is the reported cause of frequent diagnosis being made thereupon due to hosts of reasons responsible for the disease. The commonest among them are high fevers; Epilepsy; stroke; Trauma and disorders of the functions of the body. These are un-forgetful symptoms and shouldn’t be ignored because immediate brain scanning is required for any serious trouble. Symptoms of a seizure can range from sudden, violent shaking and total loss of consciousness to muscle twitching or slight shaking of a limb region. The exhibition of an individual staring at the space, Having altered vision or persistent talking or speaking are also some major symptoms of seizure formation of the brain.
Blurred vision/Impaired ears : Approximately, 25% of the patients suffering from brain tumor report of blurred vision and color blindness with hearing disability to hear only large decibel sounds and not the less frequency decibels in and around their environment (atmosphere). To get yourself checked for such symptoms formation if a patient is indeed! Suffering than patient must visit an ophthalmologist because the doctor of an Eye can vision the symptom of increased intracranial pressure inside an Eye and they can be investigated.
Strange Frequent Sensations/Numbness in body parts : The strange feelings of sensations and drowsiness (weakness) are the symptoms of having brain cancer or tumor. Person can suffer altered gait (women walking style); Feeling of visioning falling objects from a height; Asymmetrical expressions of the face and muscle tightness, etc. Sudden onset of a symptom is the sign of having a stroke sooner or later in a form of paralyses of the half body part or complete.
Conditions of behavioral patterns and Cognitive contingencies : Cognitive contingencies and behavioral patterns go and-in-hand as problems of: memory disability; concentration inability; To find appropriate words out of jumbled words; acting out for no reason and no patience/tolerance or inhibitions (doesn’t know what to say and when to say), etc. are the catastrophic signs of cognitive patterns of the human body. There’s also a sense of loss of balance of the body; confusion and disorientation with psychotic episodes of the dreams; shuffling of the steps every now and then, etc.
Vascular Dementia of Brain Tumor : Vascular dementia is the blockage of the brain’s blood supply made up of tiny and thin (delicate) veins. Multi-infarct (MID) dementia causes Alzheimer’s and Parkinson disease of the brain. It severely blocks and controls the memory and other cognitive functioning of the brain. The severity ought to be overcome immediately. It is a degenerative cerebra-vascular disease by nature. It occurs when oxygen and blood continuity is blocked but the effect is diverted usually to the people of age limit 60-75. Youngsters are not always affected by the disease on the first-hand. The cortex (front part) is affected. There’s also another diseases like (TIA’S) Transient Ischemic Attacks which temporarily blocks only the partial oxygen and blood supply and cuts the supply instantly but with impairment in consciousness or vision (sight). The damaged done to the soft tissues of the brain always interferes with the cognitive functioning of right assessment and decision making processes of the brain. It’s the arteries that feeds the brain functioning. A clot is formed in the heart due to plaque build-up in the arteries which is a result of abnormal heart rhythms or abnormalities and takes a shape of cancerous cells deposit of the brain’s thick membrane that turns out to be a formation of brain tumor. Also, a weak patch on an artery wall can balloon outward and form an aneurysm, which can burst and deprive oxygen to the brain cells.
Symptoms of Vascular Dementia :
a) High Blood pressure
b) High Cholesterol;
c) Diabetes(sugary substances);
d) Hereditary contingencies of family;
e) Diseases of arteries of the body parts(Heart clotting especially);
f) Heart rhythm or abnormalities;
g) Obesity; and
h) Excessive smoking (being a chain smoker).
In order to avoid the brain cancer by suppressing the immune system through drugs, the auto-immune inflammation diseases of the arteries need to be concentrated upon such as Lupus and Temporal.
Other Symptoms of Memory Loss :
a) Malnutrition
b) Fatigue
c) Excessive depression
d) Frequent Dehydrations
e) Adverse effects like: reactions of medicinal intake(over-the-counter) drugs
f) Acute Thyroid Gland
g) Metabolic disorder
h) Severe Head Injuries(internal bleeding)
i) Benign Brain Tumors
j) Viral and Bacterial infections of the body
k) Alzheimer’s and Parkinson diseases.
Symptoms of Schizophrenia of the brain :
a) Hallucinations;
b) Paranoid Delusions;
c) Disorganized speech;
d) Catatonic Behavioral Patterns;
e) Emotional flatness; Apathy (anger); Speechless presentation of words as negativities of thinking process;
f) Functioning problem to work at home or office, making relations to strangers; taking care of oneself rather than taking care of the entire cosmopolitan society;
g) Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is an anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as military combat, an accident, or a violent assault. People with PTSD experience symptoms that are similar to schizophrenia symptoms. The images, sounds, and smells of PTSD flashbacks can look like psychotic hallucination episodes of brain’s dreaming processes.
Different parts of the brain control different functions, so symptoms will vary depending on the tumor's location.
