Patient's question:
The son of my cousin was just born, but unexpectedly, he contracted meningitis. This is truly a bittersweet event for them. They were initially very happy after giving birth, but never imagined that the child would get meningitis at such a young age. Can newborn meningitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Regarding the child's condition, it specifically requires based on the careful examination results at that time, seeking advice from the child's attending physician. After all, newborns currently have relatively poor resistance and recovery abilities. If the hospital's careful examination and diagnosis indicate meningitis, it is often recommended to use a variety of antibiotics, reduce intracranial pressure, and in addition to a variety of drugs that support brain cell nutrition and other symptomatic treatments, considering the possibility of bacterial, viral, and other microbial infections is relatively high.
