MRI found tumor near brain nerve after months of one sided hearing loss

It started as mild tinnitus and imbalance

The case, shared by Dr Sudhir Kumar, pointed to warning signs that can seem minor at first, like persistent tinnitus and subtle imbalance, stressing the need to evaluate ongoing one-sided symptoms.
