summary

In life, the existence of brain tumor is obviously a great threat to patients. Generally speaking, in the early stage of brain tumor, it will show some symptoms in the patient's body. Therefore, this paper will share several typical early symptoms of brain tumor patients as follows.

The earliest symptoms of brain tumors

Symptom 1: headache and vomiting. More severe nature, often in the early morning attack, sometimes in sleep by pain wake up, but get up after mild activity headache will gradually ease or disappear. Due to the increase of intracranial pressure, the respiratory center of medulla oblongata is stimulated, resulting in vomiting. Vomiting usually occurs after headache, presenting jet shape, which is different from vomiting caused by gastrointestinal diseases.

Symptom 2: tinnitus and deafness. This kind of symptom can be detected when people call. For example, one ear can hear, while the other ear has no hearing. Deafness is the precursor of acoustic neuroma.

Symptom 3: visual impairment. When the intracranial pressure increases, the venous blood of the eyeball will not flow back smoothly, leading to congestion and edema, damaging the visual cells on the retina, resulting in decreased vision and diplopia. Eyes can't look out, including ptosis and exophthalmos. This is because the cranial nerve responsible for eye movement is damaged. The problem lies in the brain, not in the eyes.
