Encephalitis is a medical condition characterised by acute inflammation of the brain. It can be caused by viral, bacterial, or fungal infections, as well as autoimmune disorders. These inflammation-inducing agents invade the brain, leading to complex symptoms that require immediate attention from expert doctors. Those with weakened immune systems or in certain areas are more susceptible to the disease.
In Bangalore, cases of encephalitis can occur due to the presence of mosquitoes that may carry the virus. However, this city is home to top-notch healthcare facilities, such as Apollo Hospitals, equipped with neurological infectious disease specialists. These facilities offer world-class treatment protocols for encephalitis.
Types/Stages of Encephalitis
Encephalitis primarily manifests in two forms:
-
Primary Encephalitis: This involves a direct infection of the brain and spinal cord by infectious agents such as viruses or bacteria.
-
Secondary Encephalitis: This occurs when the immune system overreacts to an infection elsewhere in the body, mistakenly attacking healthy brain cells.
Symptoms of Encephalitis
Symptoms of encephalitis include:
-
Severe headache accompanied by fever
-
Mental confusion or changes in personality
-
Seizures
-
Sensitivity to light
-
Hallucinations and loss of consciousness
-
Incessant crying or a bulge in the soft spot on top of their head in infants
Tests to Diagnose Encephalitis
Several tests can be conducted to diagnose encephalitis by specialists for encephalitis treatment, such as:
-
Lumbar Puncture: A sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is collected for examination.
-
Brain Imaging: MRI or CT scans provide detailed images of the brain to detect inflammation.
-
Electroencephalogram (EEG): This test measures the electrical activity in the brain.
-
Blood Tests: These tests check for the presence of bacteria or viruses that might cause encephalitis.
Treatment or Surgery Options for Encephalitis at Apollo Hospitals, Bangalore
At Apollo Hospitals in Bangalore, patients with encephalitis receive comprehensive treatment options from the best autoimmune encephalitis doctors. These may include:
-
Antiviral Medications: Used by encephalitis doctors to treat viral infections causing this issue
-
Antibiotics or Antifungal Medications: Prescribed if the encephalitis is caused by bacterial or fungal infections
-
Steroids: Used to reduce brain inflammation
-
Immunoglobulin Therapy or Plasmapheresis: Particularly helpful in treating autoimmune encephalitis
-
Surgical Procedures: In some cases, such as when a tumour causes the condition, surgical intervention may be required.
With the best encephalitis treatment doctors at Apollo Hospitals, Bangalore, you can receive comprehensive and compassionate care for this condition. Whether you need a doctor for encephalitis or follow-up therapy, this faculty supports you at every step of your journey.
