Question

Does a child with brain edema need to receive treatment?

Answer

Brain edema is typically caused by viral infection and is a disease that requires serious attention. Early detection and confirmation of brain edema are crucial to initiate prompt treatment. In severe cases of brain edema, medication alone may not be sufficient to eliminate the condition, and surgical treatment may be considered. If brain edema is detected late, causing severe damage to brain cells, treatment becomes more challenging. It is recommended to seek treatment as soon as possible.
