Ok, so I'm 16 years old and worried I have
brain cancer.
To start off, I had a colon cancer scare
about 3 months ago, so I've become a bit
of a hypochondriac.
I've had this bump on the back of my head
for about a month now. I immediately
thought it was cancer. I then checked for
symptoms online and saw a symptom was
paralysis in one side of the body. I am
not paralyzed in one side, but have
getting some tingling sensations in my
right foot and hand. I think I have been
getting more headaches, but it may because
I'm worrying, or am just paying attention
to the slightest pains.
Any help?

Brain cancer would cause neurological
deficits. These could include visual
changes, speech changes, motor changes,
weakness in arms and legs, headaches and
many more. I don't think you have brain
cancer.
