Question 1

nose bleeds and brain tumors is it bad?

Accepted Answer

possibly: Unless you have a brain tumor affecting the skull base and involving the blood vessels to your nose, nose bleeds are probably not related to a brain tumor.

Question 2

i have really bad nose bleeds that would last for 10-25 minutes and then i would have a headache that last a day or two. and i don't know what's wrong. could it be a brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

No, but...: Get your blood pressure checked, and have an ENT person look at the area.

Question 3

i nose bleed sometimes, i get head aches too and sometimes i pass out for a few seconds when i stand up. could it be a brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

I would: Put your symptom complex in the "blood pressure" category rather than a tumor concern.  Your symptoms could be from high or low pressure, so go get it checked and air your concern with a professional.

Question 4

is chronic nose bleed, slurred speech, frequent headaches a sign of brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

Very Concerning!: When people have slurred speach it is always very important to have that evaluated right away. It becomes more worrisome when there is a headache involved. It sounds like a person with those symptoms should see their primary care md without delay! if the symptoms are sudden in onset, then that demands an er visit urgently.

Question 5

could someone get a brain tumor in your nose?

Accepted Answer

No: Brain tumors whether benign  such as meningioma or even the more aggressive tumors such as glioblastoma remain  confined to  the brain. Even the most aggressive tumor will not breakthrough the cribriform plate to enter the nasal cavity.  Here lesions arise in nasal mucosa or are from sinuses

Question 6

a spot on my cheek and nose keep randomly tingling. could that mean i have a brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

Highly doubtful: If there was a tumor in your brain or any other brain problem causing your symptoms, I would expect the symptoms to be there all the time.

Question 7

i'm scared i have a brain tumor or brain is bleeding, what are the for sure signs of this?

Accepted Answer

Brain tumor: A bleed in the brain is usually manifested with the onset of a severe sudden headache, often described as the "worst headache of my life". A tumor can be more subtle with initially headaches, memory confusion, sometimes speech problems and walking difficulties.

Question 8

i smell gas in my nose for the past couple weeks i have had i might still have a sinus infec.take amox.500 mg only 2 so far.can this be a brain tumor?

Accepted Answer

Doubt: Jumping to the conclusion of brain tumor is extreme, especially with lack of any other symptoms. However, sinusitis is a reasonable assumption to treat in cases of cacosmia (strange smell). Continue to follow with your doctor as he works through this. As you alluded, 2 doses is too early.

Question 9

my son is 11 since he was like 3 he has been having random nose bleed and migrains, he also grinds his teeth is this a sign of a brain tumor? am concerned as i have had thyroid cancer.

Accepted Answer

Children : Children grinding their teeth is quite normal and not indicative of a tumor in and of itself.

You should see his pediatrician regarding the random nosebleeds and migranes.

Question 10

i don't have nose stuffiness but frontal sinus is tender and i've been feeling a bit dizzy and heavy headed lately - related? brain tumor? scared

Accepted Answer

Sinus infection?: Without doing a physical exam or getting a complete medical history from you, your symptoms sound consistent with a sinus infection rather than a brain tumor. Chronic sinus infections can be difficult to treat, but it is possible. The only way to know what your symptoms are caused by is to visit a health care provider. I hope you feel better soon.
