Dear Friends,
With the arrival of summer and the fall season an ongoing Spinal Meningitis threat raises its ugly head in search for victims, its prey are often children under-5 and adults under-30. Protect against or avoid mosquitoes! The flying insect pest is more active with warm weather. Mosquito bites are a common cause of spinal meningitis, which leads to inflammation of the brain membranes and spinal cord. Meningitis affects the brain and spine at the same time.
The symptoms of both bacterial and non-bacterial "spinal meningitis symptoms" are very similar. The onslaught of meningitis disease is preceded generally by a splitting headache, fever and chills, severe stiff neck, sensitivity to light, vomiting, loss of appetite, and sweating.
Bacterial Meningitis may show some extra symptoms like mental status or alertness changes, eary stage dementia, agitation, skin rashes, eye twitching and protruding soft-skull areas seen in babies.
If you experience these meningitis symptoms seek medical attention right away, including making a visit to your area hospital emergency room or local immediate care clinic. Treatment and diagnosis delays can cause incurable secondary defects such as blindness, deafness, amputations and brain damage and can be life-threatening.
Common meningitis disease diagnostic tools the doctor uses for spinal meningitis include a Lumbar Puncture to inspect cerebrospinal fluid, bacterial culture, chest xray and a CT scan of the brain to locate meningitis disease damage.
Bacterial Meningitis is treated with antibiotics administered orally at first and then intravenously. The earlier meningitis-disease is detected and treated the better will be the results. Although less often seen, Bacterial Meningitis is much more serious vs Viral Meningitis. Antibiotics can not cure Viral Meningitis. The disease usually resolves on its own. Secondary effects can be treated with IV fluids.
Take care of yourself friends.
Stay healthy!!Stay fit!!
