Hi,
Meningitis and
blood clots in the brain can be serious medical conditions that require immediate medical attention. It sounds like your cousin has undergone some procedures already, but it may be helpful to continue to work with the medical team to monitor his condition and determine the best course of treatment moving forward.
Here are some potential treatment options that may be considered for your cousin's condition:
* Antibiotics: If meningitis is confirmed, antibiotics may be prescribed to help fight the infection.
* Anticoagulants: Blood thinners may be prescribed to help prevent further blood clot formation and reduce the risk of
stroke.
* Surgery: Depending on the severity and location of the blood clot, surgery may be necessary to remove the clot and alleviate pressure on the brain.
* Rehabilitation: After the initial treatment, your cousin may need rehabilitation to regain movement and strength in his left side.
It may be helpful to seek out support from friends, family, or mental health professionals to cope with the emotional
stress of this situation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
