Question 1

could an internal clicking in my head be connected to a tumor?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: Please see your md for a physical to be sure but such a complaint is rarely related to brain tumors.

Question 2

ive had numbness in both temples of my head, that gets worse when i sit down and goes away at times, also with clicking in my head and occasional pain in my right eye. what could this be? ive worried myself to death that it might be a tumor?

Accepted Answer

: These are not the signs of a tumor. They sound like functional symptoms. Keep yourself busy with some activity. If they persist please see your doc for a good exam. I think you will be fine

Question 3

is it for sure a mri will find it if i got tmj?christmas is coming and i need to know if it is and not tumor in parotid gland .lot of jaw clicking

Accepted Answer

CBCT vs. MRI imaging: allows a TMJ specialist to look inside your TMJ joints without performing surgery. The MRI  views of soft tissues, doesn't give the specialist as detailed a picture as necessary of bone structure; and this is exactly what's needed to diagnose TMJ disease and plan the proper treatment. Hope it helps.

Question 4

Question 5

can anxiety make your head funny n lightheaded n swaying feeling heart fast sometimes feels like i drop been drs weekly really scared inner ear tumor?

Accepted Answer

Anxiety: Anxiety can cause many symptoms;your question is ambiguous.An inner ear tumour can cause dizziness of a vertiginous quality,please supply more details,rephrase the question or go to Healthtap Concierge or see a local physician.

Question 6

would i know if i had a neurological disorder or tumor or inner ear issues,constant lightheaded daily 5+yrs head funny my drs tells me all anxiety ?

Accepted Answer

Seek advice: You won't know, necessarily. Vertigo is a sensation of spinning or motion of the person or the environment, while dizziness is not a sense of motion but lightheadedness or feeling floaty or off kilter. There can be neurologic  issues, inner ear problems , visual problems,  psychologic issues, cardiovascular problems,  and many other causes. See an ENT, neurologist, and possibly cardiolologist.

Question 7

floor feels like it moves when i stand up and laying down i'm ok but certain ways i move my head i can get dizzy headed. dr said frontal sinus infection and said it wasn't bppv nor inner ear. tumor?

Accepted Answer

Doubt sinus problem: Frontal sinus if properly diagnosed by a cat scan almost never produces the feeling you are describing.  How was the diagnosis of frontal sinusitis made?  It does not sound like you have had a ct of the sinuses.  Otherwise, you would not question tumor.  If bppv (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) has been ruled out, a neurologist may be helpful.

Question 8

will anxiety make your head all sudden go real funny kinda like a zap without the buss or like u pass out really weird hard explain makes me goes straight into panic worries brain tumor or inner ears or sinus ?

Accepted Answer

Anxiety can: produce the symptoms your described. You may also be not drinking enough water to stay hydrated. Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless. If the symptoms persist after proper hydration, it would be prudent to see your doctor.
Wish you good health!

Question 9

it's like an internal clicking i hear when i walk inside the top of my head almost like someone is tapping a coin against my skull, what is it?

Accepted Answer

Tapping noise: skull: Your body is mostly liquid, and as you may know from swimming with your head under water, sounds in water are transmitted loudly.  The noise you describe is probably from a joint in your shoulder or hip which may be "heard" while walking.  It probably is not serious, but if it continues, see an orthopedic doctor or an internist to determine the cause.

Question 10

is there a test i could do at home to test inner ear i have a weird lightheaded feeling swaying sometimes drs say anxiety,worried tumor inner ear ?

Accepted Answer

BAER: test can exclude the presence of a small acoustic neuroma  
if the test is normal. Medications used for allergies can cause lightheartedness. Dizziness is a complicated matter, I see about 10 patients a month in Kentucky who have difficult to diagnosis dizziness. I wish there was a simple home test. Unsteadiness with eyes closed that improves with eyes open is often due to low B12 (
