What to do if a brain tumor compresses the nerves? How long can you live if a brain tumor compresses the nerves?

Brain tumors can be benign or malignant. For some patients with benign brain tumors, the disease will not develop seriously over a long period of time, and some patients may not even have their normal life affected for more than 20 years. However, if it is a malignant tumor, it must be treated early, and not until it has compressed the nerves.

For brain tumors that have already compressed nerves, the survival period is related to the individual patient's condition. Generally, they can be better controlled after surgical treatment.

Surgery is the best way to treat brain tumors. If consolidation treatment is done after surgery, the disease can generally be controlled. If surgery is not possible, radiotherapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine can be used. Radiotherapy has a good effect in the short term, especially for the treatment of brain tumors.
