What does purulent meningitis sequela have?

First, bacterial meningitis is caused by a bacterial infection. It can be divided into three types: Haemophilus influenzae type B, Neisseria meningitidis (diplococcus) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus). About 80% of the cases in the United States are bacterial meningitis. Usually, a small number of healthy people carry these bacteria in the nose or on the body surface, and they do not harm the human body. They are transmitted by coughing or sneezing. People are most likely to be infected by bacteria when they have a cold, because inflammation of the nose makes it extremely easy for bacteria to enter the brain.

Second: tuberculous meningitis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis meningeal non suppurative inflammation, accounting for about 6% of systemic tuberculosis. After blood dissemination of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, tuberculous nodules were planted under the pia mater, and a large number of tuberculous bacteria entered the subarachnoid space after the tubercle burst. In recent years, the incidence rate and mortality rate of tuberculous meningitis are increasing. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the curative effect and reduce the mortality.

Third: cryptococcal meningitis, meningitis can also be caused by fungi. The most common one is Cryptococcus, which can be found in pigeons. Healthy people are not susceptible to fungal meningitis, but not to those infected with HIV, a human immunodeficiency virus that can cause AIDS.
