What is mold meningitis?

Patient's question:

I went for a thorough check-up last week because I wasn't feeling well in my head. Then the doctor told me that the illness I have is called fungal meningitis. However, I've never had any head-related illnesses before, and I'm in generally good health. I don't understand why I suddenly developed this condition. Now, the doctor has given me many suggestions for treatment, but I'd like to ask, what exactly is fungal meningitis?

Doctor's answer:

Moldy meningitis is caused by fungal infections leading to meningitis. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, antifungal drugs are primarily chosen. Since fungi are widely present in nature, if the body's immunity is low, there is a possibility of this occurring again. Ninety percent of fungal meningitis is caused by molds. Antifungal drugs can include triazole antifungal drugs, and it is also necessary to coordinate symptomatic supportive treatment.
