Neuro Infectious Diseases
Neuro Infectious Diseases are a group of illnesses that are caused by infections that attack the nervous system. These infections cause inflammation, damage and dysfunction of the nervous system, and can range from mild to life-threatening. Neuro Infectious Diseases can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites. Severe and systemic Neuro Infectious Diseases may lead to long-term, even permanent, neurological damage, or even death. Early diagnosis and prompt, appropriate treatment of Neuro Infectious Diseases is very important in preventing further damage and long-term disability. Treatment of Neuro Infectious Diseases typically includes antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, or antiparasitics, depending on the type of pathogen causing the disease. Vaccination can also be used to help prevent some Neuro Infectious Diseases.
