Your doctor will ask you about your health, as well as if you have any preexisting health conditions. They will also be checking your medical history to see if an illness you might have had in the past might be responsible for your headaches.
If needed, they might ask you to undergo various tests such as a blood test, lumbar puncture, or imaging tests such as an MRI or X-ray. This should give your doctor a better idea about what might be causing your headaches.
Key Takeaways
Headaches are a pretty common occurrence, and everyone experiences a headache at some point in their life. And despite headaches being a possible sign of brain tumors, they are usually nothing to be too worried about.
The important thing to remember is to consult your doctor about it if your headaches are persistent. They can best assess, diagnose, and prescribe treatment for your condition or the underlying condition of your headache.
And remember, headaches are not the only sign of a brain tumor. There’s no reason to panic, especially if you’re not experiencing any other symptoms.
