Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My mom is 46 years old this year. A few weeks ago, my mom kept coughing, so she went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said my mom has multiple tuberculous meningitis. Doctor, how serious is this disease for my mom? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Tuberculous meningitis is a series of symptoms caused by the transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from the meninges and conjunctiva. This disease remains very serious, and if treatment is not timely, it may lead to death or severe disability in patients, therefore it should be taken seriously. Its clinical manifestations are mainly high fever and headache, which may cause severe symptoms such as mental disorders or hemiplegia. Conventional treatment should be carried out to cut off the connection between tuberculosis and open pulmonary tuberculosis patients to avoid worsening the condition.
