Not every headache is a brain tumour, but persistent symptoms should never be ignored.
On World Brain Tumour Day, Dr Sudish Karunakaran, Head of Department and Neurosurgeon, emphasises the importance of recognising early warning signs such as persistent headaches, seizures, unexplained vomiting, vision changes, weakness of limbs, speech difficulties, or changes in behaviour and memory.
Brain tumours can affect people of all ages. Advances in neuroimaging, surgical techniques and multidisciplinary care have significantly improved outcomes, especially when diagnosis and treatment are not delayed.
Awareness leads to early detection, and early detection can save lives.
