Patient's question:
I recently don't know what happened, my body was found to have viral meningitis. I understood the need for surgery and treatment, and I am currently resting. However, various problems have occurred multiple times. I feel very frustrated because I know nothing about this. I would like to ask the experts about viral meningitis: during the recovery period, if multiple symptoms occur, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
It is essential to actively treat viral encephalitis. In most cases, surgery is not required. During the acute phase, antiviral medications are generally necessary to prevent increased intracranial pressure. It is crucial to rest in bed and reduce immunity, actively provide symptomatic treatment. The treatment plan can be determined based on the severity of the condition. Hospitalization is necessary. Since this type of viral encephalitis is prone to causing increased intracranial pressure, early treatment with corticosteroids can be combined.
