But some noncancerous tumors press on other body parts and do need medical care.

Detailed explanation-3: -Benign tumors grow only in one place. They cannot spread or invade other parts of your body. Even so, they can be dangerous if they press on vital organs, such as your brain.

Detailed explanation-4: -A benign tumor is an abnormal but noncancerous collection of cells. It can form anywhere on or in your body when cells multiply more than they should or don’t die when they should. A benign tumor is not malignant. It grows more slowly, has even borders and doesn’t spread to other parts of your body.
