How can one differentiate between normal headaches & brain tumor headaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No good way: There is no good or accepted way to differentiate headache from different causes. Diagnosing brain tumor would require imaging studies. Wish you 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. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. 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. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
