When headache mean there is tumor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but on rare occa: Headaches are common, most of us have them. Some people have tension headaches(stress related), others have Migraine(one half of the head hurts with a throbbing pain). Brain tumors can be the cause on rare occasions. So we do not think of tumors unless the headache is new, getting progressively worse everyday, often waking you from sleep. You should get yourself medically checked if you R worried.
