What Causes Headaches With History Of Pyogenic Meningitis?
My son around 6.3 years of age is complaining of headache now. When he was at 3.9 years had got treated for partial pyogenic meningitis. His widal was 1:160. He was done with CSF analysis and it showed lymphocytic pleacytosis with normal sugar and protein. During that time he was completely cured and discharged. But now since he is complaining of headache i am little nervous. So kindly give me your suggestion regarding this that what to do immediately?

What he had previously 3 yrs ago, looks like an aseptic meninigitis in typhoid and not a serious bacterial one and the present problem of headache may not be related to it. How severe is the pain and did you test his vision, ENT before you encounter any brain problems to think?
