What is "encephalitis"?
Encephalitis is a condition where the brain becomes swollen, typically due to an infection or an autoimmune reaction. It can cause symptoms such as fever, headache, confusion, seizures, and in serious cases, coma or even death. Encephalitis requires immediate medical attention, and treatment may involve antiviral or anti-inflammatory medications, depending on the cause of the swelling. With timely treatment, many people with encephalitis can recover fully, although some may experience long-term complications such as memory problems or seizures.
