Can you get a brain tumor from hitting your head?
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 31st July '24
Head impacts may damage the brain, but tumors from these incidents seldom arise. Brain tumors usually have different causes. Signs of a tumor possibly include headaches, seizures, vision changes, and speech difficulties. If hitting your head causes worry or symptoms appear, see a neurologist for check-ups and proper treatment.

I am 24 years old. I have recurring fever from past three days. It is less like fever, it is more like my body is heating up so much, mostly at nights. The heat is extreme. I have also got subconjunctival hemorrhage in my eyes for the second time. First time it happened around one and a half month back.
Female | 24
The symptoms you described, like recurring fever, excessive body warmth, and red eyes, might indicate an underlying infection. These can sometimes signal a condition needing medical care. I suggest seeing a neurologist promptly for a thorough examination to determine what's causing your issues and the best treatment plan.

I have some memory issue I forget things very easily Tingling sensation in hand and feet Headache Weakness
Female | 17
The possibility that a person may have memory problems, tingling in the hands and feet, headaches, or muscle weakness suggests that there may be a shortage of specific vitamins in his/her body like vitamin B12. Taking vitamin B12 could assist in this deficit and could be found in meat and dairy products.

I have pain in my head in one side only and pain side face swelling also and some times pain side eye vision is getting dull
Female | 38
It feels like you might have sinusitis. Sinusitis can make one side of your head hurt, swell up your face, or affect your sight. This occurs when the sinuses in your face become infected or inflamed. Try putting warm wet towels on your face, drinking lots of water, and using saline nasal sprays. If it still hurts, contact a healthcare provider for further treatment.

Hello! I was diagnosed with OCD a while ago, and one of the compulsions to certain thoughts was to hold my breath for time. It all started from here. I entered medicine, I am passionate about the field and I was always a 10th grade student. My question is if my brain was affected, if there was any cerebral hypoxia. There were times when I held my breath for quite long periods (until I felt that I had to do it), other times when I was not breathing enough and had that feeling of suffocation (the biggest fear here is, I don't know exactly how much). I had a native brain MRI, 1.5 tesla, nothing negative came out. However, on a micro level, was my cognition, my intelligence, my memory affected? The SpO2 value is 98-99% now, should I go to a doctor? I haven't slept much in my life, I always stay up at night to study and I wonder if my brain is more sensitive to such things, also I was born prematurely. I had read on the Internet that people can get hypoxia and not see it on an MRI, that really panicked me. I'm starting college in a week and I'm constantly thinking about this. If I'm going to forget certain details, I won't remember certain things, I'll always think it's because my brain was damaged, not that it's normal not to remember everything. I managed to overcome these compulsions. But I think that there are no after-effects on the brain. What do you recommend? I am very panicked that I might have hurt myself because of some senseless compulsions. I don't feel myself anymore, after reading or many things on the Internet. Is there anything to do?
Male | 18
Holding your breath for a long time can sometimes make you dizzy or suffocate, nevertheless, it is improbable for you to suffer from a permanent brain injury. Your brain which requires oxygen is doing well because you have been receiving good oxygen levels. If you're feeling worried, try some relaxation techniques like deep breathing or talking to someone you trust.

I'm 28 yrs old and my body keeps going numb on and off and I feel like I'm dying. I'm scared idk what to do
Female | 28
Random numbness in your body can feel quite worrying. Causes include circulation issues, compressed nerves, or anxiety. For prevention, eat nutritious foods, exercise regularly, and manage stress levels. However, if you are experiencing persistent numbness, visit a neurologist to identify the underlying reason and receive proper treatment.

I had an EEG done a couple weeks ago and my neurology appointment is a month away. I'm trying to make heads and tails with what I've been told
Male | 35
If there were any abnormal brain waves, your doctor may want to investigate further. Things like seizures or even bad headaches can cause strange brain wave patterns to show up on this test. So, it’s good news that you have an appointment with a neurologist coming up soon. They will be able to help you figure out what comes next based on what’s been going on with you and what showed up in the EEG.

Frequently numb hands or tingling feelings in the hands may indicate carpal tunnel syndrome. It happens when the median nerve, which travels from your forearm to your hand through a narrow passageway called the carpal tunnel, is squeezed or compressed. It is recommended that you consult a neurologist early enough for proper treatment.

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury
Male | 50
Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

The tingling sensation on toes and hands and spine pain could be symptoms of nerve damage or pressure. It is best to see a neurologist who may perform tests to determine the cause and provide suitable treatment. Ignoring these symptoms only means that there will be more complications.

Female | 19
It is normal to go through uneasiness following a stroke. It can cause trouble concentrating and brain fog. But, generally, these problems tend to be resolved as your brain heals. Rest, eat, and drink well. It is also essential to fulfill the potential recommendations of your neurologist.
