Meningitis is an inflammation of the fluid and membranes (meninges) surrounding your brain and spinal cord.
Meningitis complications can be severe. The longer you or your child has the disease without treatment, the greater the risk of seizures and permanent neurological damage, including:
Hearing loss
Memory difficulty
Learning disabilities
Brain damage
Gait problems
Seizures
Kidney failure
Shock
Death
With prompt treatment, even people with severe meningitis can have good recovery.
