Answer
There is no specific treatment for viral encephalitis. However, due to the self-limiting nature of the disease course, proper encouragement and symptomatic treatment during the acute phase are crucial for ensuring a full and complete recovery, reducing mortality and disability rates. Western medicine generally has better efficacy in treating this condition, with most patients recovering within 1 to 2 weeks without any sequelae. Very few cases may experience recurrent episodes, leading to difficult-to-heal conditions. Traditional Chinese medicine also shows good efficacy and is less likely to cause complications.
