How is baby meningitis caused

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How does baby meningitis occur?

Doctor's answer:

The condition of a baby suffering from meningitis may be caused by the baby's weak resistance, or triggered by factors such as catching a cold, a flu, or improper diet, which lead to an increase in resistance. It is a clinical manifestation resulting from the transmission of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. This condition typically requires the use of many antibiotics, as well as medications to reduce intracranial pressure and other symptomatic treatments like nutrients to support brain cells. The specific medication regimen should be determined based on the child's blood test results, electroencephalogram, or lumbar puncture findings, and consultation with the child's attending physician is necessary.
