Patient's question:
I have been dating my girlfriend for three years. Last time I went to her house with her. Her mother told me that her father had viral meningitis. I had never heard of this disease before and didn't know what it was. Hello, is viral meningitis easy to treat? I just wanted to ask!Doctor's answer:
Viral meningitis is a particularly serious illness that requires prompt treatment. Life-threatening conditions should be treated immediately. If treatment is delayed, death or permanent brain damage may occur again within a few hours. However, most people can recover completely, while a small number may have. Because this disease spreads rapidly, treatment should be implemented immediately, even before test results are available. If you have meningitis, you should go to the hospital until the infection is completely resolved, which takes about two weeks.
