Question
What are the pathways of intracranial infection caused by extracranial inflammation?
Answer
There are several pathways that can lead to intracranial infections, including common colds, severe head injuries, infections in the ears, nasopharynx, and teeth, which may cause bacteria or viruses to migrate to the brain, leading to meningeal inflammation. Additionally, intracranial infections in children can worsen rapidly. If not treated promptly and correctly, they may cause serious harm to infants. It is advisable to seek immediate treatment at a professional hospital.
