6 Early Signs of Brain Tumor

Here are 6 early signs of brain tumor which allows you to recognize the condition at an early stage and get the right treatment. An early diagnosis is very important in order to prevent the development of the brain tumor. None of these signs on their own means that you have a brain tumor, but if you experience more of the symptoms, we recommend that you contact your GP for a consultation. Do you have input?

Brain tumors can be divided into primary tumors (tumors that arise in the brain) or metastasis (cancer that occurs due to spread). Risk factors for brain tumor development are age, family history and how much radiation you have been exposed to. We note that symptoms and clinical signs of brain tumor depend on the size, position and growth of the tumor.

1. New / changed headaches

Symptoms of a brain tumor can be a new form of headache that you have not experienced before and a change from your 'normal headaches'. One should also watch for whether the headaches gradually worsen and occur more often.

Common cause: The most common cause of headaches is dysfunction in muscles and joints - often caused by too much repetitive work, too little movement in everyday life and a lot of stress.

2. Nausea / vomiting

People who are affected can experience nausea and vomiting without a good explanation for this - such as illness. As the condition worsens, it can also occur more often.

3. Vision problems and blurred vision

A common symptom can be impaired vision, vision problems and blurred vision - which gradually gets worse. People can also experience that they lose their side vision.

4. Balance problems

The condition can also lead to impaired balance and impaired feeling in the legs - and the person may also experience that they become increasingly "clumsy" and have an easier time losing balance than before.

5. Personality changes and impaired cognitive function

People affected can change personality and mood. It can also be experienced that normal brain functions and cognitive function change and impair.

6. Hearing problems

Hearing loss on one or both sides can occur with brain tumor.

Book Reading Extends Life!

A study published in the research journal Social Science and Medicine has shown that reading books can actually prolong life. The researchers found that reading books can increase life expectancy by a full two years - and that the more you read the better.

Becca Levy, an epidemiology professor at Yale University, is one of the lead researchers behind the study. Their latest published research shows that reading is not only a good pastime, but also directly healthy for body and mind.

Book reading increased survival by 23 percent

3635 men and women participated in the study - mainly in the age group 50+. The study lasted over 12 years and the participants were followed up along the way. The conclusion was as follows:

"Compared to adults who do not read books, book readers who read books up to 3 1/2 hours a week have a 17 percent lower chance of dying - and those who read more than 3 1/2 hours a week have a 23 percent greater chance of survival. »

In the study, they found that those who read books lived almost 2 years longer than those who did not read books - the findings were still significant after taking into account variable factors such as age, gender, income, education and self-reported health status. A good argument for picking up the book on the edge of the bed! In the past, book reading has also been directly linked to positive cognitive functions and increased empathy.

The mechanism is unknown, but most likely linked to increased cognitive function

The study could not say with certainty the very reason why book reading prolonged life, but they speculated that it has improved brain function and cognitive abilities. Previously, research from 2013 has also shown that book reading is directly linked to improved linkage between brain cells.

Conclusion
