Intracranial Hypertension

Intracranial hypertension is a medical condition characterized by increased pressure inside the skull. This pressure can arise from various causes, such as brain injuries, infections, tumors, or certain medical conditions. Symptoms may include headaches, vision problems, dizziness, and nausea. If the pressure becomes too high, it can lead to serious complications, including damage to brain tissue. Diagnosing intracranial hypertension typically involves medical imaging and monitoring, and treatment focuses on reducing the pressure, which may include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgical interventions to prevent further complications. Early detection and management are crucial for a positive outcome.
