can you get brain tumor from a traumatic head injury?

Accepted Answer

No: There is no connection between traumatic brain injury and the development of subsequent cancer.

Question 6

my right side of my head aches. do i have a brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

Don't panic: That's quite a jump: From headache to brain tumor in one step. It's possible but not likely. You may have heard of a kind of headache called "migraine." The word is a French corruption of the Greek word "hemicranium," meaning "1/2 of the head" because migraines typically affect only one side at a time. Only way to know for sure is to get a hands-on assessment in a doctor's office. Good luck.

Accepted Answer

No: You are no more risk for brain tumor now than you were before you had the CAT scan.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form.  Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless.
Practice safe sex. 
Get HPV vaccine.

Question 8

please explain if it is possible to get a meningioma (a type of brain tumor) from a head injury?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: The cause of most meningiomas is not known.  A few occur in genetic syndromes such as neurofribomatosis type ii, and some occur after radiation therapy for other tumors.  Head trauma is not known to cause these tumors.  Sometimes one is discovered when there is head trauma leading to a brain scan (ct or mri) as an "incidental" finding.
