Is meningitis easy to treat? Is it dangerous?

Patient's question:

Is meningitis easy to treat?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if meningitis occurs again, this situation requires additional treatment with sensitive antibiotics. In this case, a lumbar puncture can be performed to see if culture can be done. Based on the culture results, if the patient with meningitis does not receive active treatment, there is a high possibility of developing complications, such as abnormalities in the nervous system or limb movement, intellectual abnormalities, and so on.
