How To Treat And Manage Congenital Hydrocephalus

All humans are born with some cerebrospinal fluid around their brain to cushion the area, but children with congenital hydrocephalus are born with a dangerously high amount of fluid around the brain. This can be dangerous because the excess fluid puts a lot of pressure on the brain and developing skull. Children with congenital hydrocephalus tend to be born with unusually large heads, and they may have problems like seizures, slowed heart rates, vomiting, headaches, and reduced breathing. When dealing with congenital hydrocephalus, there are many potential treatment methods available.
