How to identify meningitis

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. How can meningitis be identified?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, after being infected by bacteria, viruses, or other microorganisms, it is prone to cause a recurrence of meningitis. This disease is mostly spread through the fecal-oral route. Patients may experience symptoms such as fever, headache, nausea, restlessness, and in severe cases, anorexia and convulsions. If treatment is delayed, complications may arise, such as hydrocephalus, epilepsy, vision impairment, facial nerve paralysis, and other conditions.
