Patient's question:
The child's head has recently become somewhat large, and the blood vessels can also be seen. Additionally, the child has been very emotionally unstable, crying frequently, and has an unusual posture. After examination, it was diagnosed as hydrocephalus in children. How is hydrocephalus in children treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, when a child presents with such conditions, we generally have two methods of treatment. The first is to use medication directly. Sometimes the symptoms are not very severe, and medication can control the progression of the condition. However, in most cases, surgical treatment is still required because there is accumulated fluid in the brain, and we need to drain this fluid through surgery.
