Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurology department. Could you please tell me the causes of viral encephalitis and what I should pay attention to after treatment?Doctor's answer:
If after careful examination it is considered to be viral encephalitis, this condition is mainly caused by a viral infection that has not recovered for a long time due to colds or other reasons, leading to the virus infecting the nervous system and causing these symptoms again. Generally, this condition should gradually improve with active antiviral treatment, neurotrophic treatment, and medication to reduce cerebral edema. It is important to pay attention to getting as much rest as possible, enhancing nutrition, and avoiding strenuous exercise.
