Which one is more serious, encephalitis or meningitis?

Some friends don’t know much about encephalitis and meningitis. Encephalitis is a disease that affects brain health, while meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges and spinal membranes. Relatively speaking, encephalitis is more serious than meningitis because it is more likely to cause sequelae.

1. Both encephalitis and meningitis are very serious diseases. Relatively speaking, if treated actively, encephalitis is much more serious than meningitis. Meningitis can be cured through broad-spectrum antibiotics, while encephalitis will leave sequelae after treatment.

2. Patients can also receive psychological counseling, which can use some language or things to stimulate certain emotional changes in the patient, so as to suppress the patient's morbid emotions and keep the patient in a happy mood. This is also a better and more conducive method of treating this disease.

3. Dietary taboos for meningitis include not eating spicy and irritating foods, such as chili peppers, aniseed, peppercorns and other hot foods. Also, some Chinese medicines with warming and tonic effects should not be taken casually, such as ginseng, etc., as they will accelerate the growth of malignant tumors.
