Yes, there are instances when children and teens to have brain tumors.
It is vital that you or your friend, who suspects possibly having a tumor, to notify the parents and make an appointment with a physician studied in testing for such medical issues.
Usually, you can contact your local hosptial and get a referral to a neurologist, who would be able to run tests and find out for sure if your problem is a tumor.
There are certain signs to indicate possible tumor activity: visual problems, headaches, dizziness, and nausea.
Again, it is vital you seek professional help and make trusted family members aware of your needs.
Take care
