Brain Tumour Awareness: Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore #braintumour #chinmayamissionhospital

Brain Tumour Awareness: Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore is a special World Brain Tumour Day 2026 awareness session featuring Dr Kiran, Senior Consultant Neurosurgeon and HOD, Neuroscience, who answers some of the most important questions about brain tumours, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. The theme of World Brain Tumour Day 2026 is: "Know the signs. Act early. Protect the brain." Brain tumours can affect people of any age, and many symptoms are often overlooked in the early stages. Through this informative question-and-answer session, Dr Kiran explains the warning signs that should never be ignored and why early diagnosis can save lives. In this video, you will learn: • What a brain tumour is • Common symptoms and warning signs • Whether every headache is a sign of a brain tumour • Why seizures need medical evaluation • How brain tumours can affect behaviour and memory • Who may be at risk • How MRI and CT scans help in diagnosis • Available treatment options and recovery prospects Important symptoms discussed include persistent headaches, repeated vomiting, seizures, blurred vision, weakness, speech difficulty, balance problems, memory changes, and sudden behavioural changes. Many brain tumours are treatable when detected early. Awareness, timely medical evaluation, and appropriate treatment can significantly improve outcomes. At Chinmaya Mission Hospital, we encourage everyone to seek medical guidance early rather than ignoring persistent neurological symptoms. This World Brain Tumour Day, learn the facts and understand why Brain Tumour Awareness: Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore can make a life-saving difference. #BrainTumourAwareness #WorldBrainTumourDay #ChinmayaMissionHospital
