  When you experience a headache that is more terrible than usual and doesn't feel like a tension headache or migraine, you might worry whether it's an indication of something more serious. You might even question if you're suffering from a brain tumour. However, keep in mind that the majority of headaches aren't caused by brain tumours . In fact, each year in the United States, fewer than 90,000 people are diagnosed with a brain tumour. The vast majority of brain cancers begin elsewhere in the body and then spread to the brain. Metastatic brain tumours are the term for these types of cancers. A primary brain tumour is a tumour that develops in the brain. As a result, most headaches aren't caused for alarm. A headache, on the other hand, is the most prevalent sign of a brain tumour. Understanding the distinctions between a regular headache and a headache caused by a brain tumour can help you relax. However, whenever you have a new issue, such as headaches and

The compression of the median nerve at the wrist causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), a frequent issue affecting hand function. The transverse carpal ligament, which forms the top of the carpal tunnel is formed by numerous bones in the wrist. The carpal tunnel holds the median nerve as well as nine tendons. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be caused by inflammation and growth of the median nerve, tendons, thickening of the transverse carpal ligament, or the presence of a mass lesion (such as a tumour or cyst) within the carpal tunnel, or a combination of these factors.   The end outcome, regardless of the exact cause is pressure on the median nerve and dysfunction. Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal tunnel syndrome manifests itself in the following ways: Numbness in your palm and thumb, or your index and middle fingers that are burning, tingling, or itching Hand tremors and difficulty holding objects Feelings of shock that migrate into your fingers A tingling sensation that trav

There are over 130 different forms of brain and central nervous system tumours, ranging from benign to malignant, exceedingly rare to reasonably common.  Metastatic Metastatic brain tumours are the most frequent type of brain tumour in adults. They are classed as secondary brain tumours because they develop from cancer that began elsewhere in the body and migrated to the brain. The exact incidence rates are unknown; however, the American Brain Tumor Association believes that between 200,000 and 300,000 metastatic brain tumours are detected each year. Lung or breast cancer is the most common cause of metastatic malignancies. Larger metastatic tumours are frequently surgically excised (meaning removed), whereas smaller tumours may be treated with a gamma knife, a type of radiation therapy that focuses 200 tiny beams of radiation onto the tumorous area. Meningioma Because they grow in the meninges, which are the membranes that line the skull and spinal canal, these tumours are no
