Also known as vestibular schwannomas,
acoustic neuromas are quite common and the majority are benign. These slow growing tumors develop on the main nerve leading from your inner ear to your brain which often affect your balance, hearing, and possibly facial movement.
Symptoms
Because these tumors directly affect the main nerves in the brain, pressure can cause:
- Hearing Loss
- Inner Ear Ringing
- Imbalance
- Vertigo
