Cancer symptoms: The ‘very important’ warning sign when you ‘bend down’ – see a doctor

Am I at risk?

The cause of most brain tumours is unknown, but there are several risk factors that may increase your chances of developing a brain tumour.

Having a risk factor does not mean you will get cancer.

Your risk of developing cancer depends on many things including your age, genetics, lifestyle and environmental factors.

According to Cancer Research UK, brain tumours can start at any age. But as we get older our risk of developing most cancers, including brain tumours, increases.
