Does a traumatic brain injury cause infection and fever?

Patient's question:

Can a brain injury cause an infection and fever?

Doctor's answer:

Traumatic brain injury can also cause intracranial infection, requiring treatment with a large amount of antibiotics, dehydration, mannitol, diuretics, and other medications. We know that intracranial infection in children can cause significant harm to them. If it is not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, it can progress rapidly, bringing great harm to young children. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their children's condition and take them for treatment in a timely manner.
