Head Tumor Symptoms
2. Benign
If you do find out that you have a tumor, there is no reason to begin panicking straight away. A lot of tumors are benign and this means that they will not spread to other parts of the body. Instead, the tumor will remain in the affected part only, often without doing any harm.
That does not mean to say that benign tumors are completely harmless. If they grow too much then they can begin to put pressure against nearby tissues and organs, such as the brain, and this can cause some serious problems. Treating benign brain tumors is relatively straightforward in comparison to malignant tumors.
