The symptoms depend on exactly where the swellings are:

CafÃ©-au-lait patches and freckles (see section on diagnosis) can occur, as may multiple swellings in the skin that are small, jelly-like and purplish. They are not usually painful but can itch and be a nuisance if they catch on clothing or objects.
Swellings in major nerves can cause tingling and other odd sensations in the area supplied by those nerves if it is pressed.
Deafness, tinnitus and vertigo if a vestibular (inner ear) nerve is affected.

There are yet more symptoms and signs if the brain is affected (see 'Complications').
