Brain tumour symptoms and key signs to look out for

These are brain tumour symptoms to be aware of and to look out for.

A brain tumour is a growth of cells in the brain that multiplies in an abnormal, uncontrollable way. Symptoms may develop gradually over a long period of time if the tumour is slow growing, or can be quickly over days or weeks if the tumour is fast growing.

According to Cancer Research UK, a person's risk of developing cancer depends on many things including age, genetics, lifestyle and environmental factors. Risk factors for developing a brain tumour include getting older and family history, however, having these does not mean that you will definitely develop a brain tumour.
