Warning Signs Of Arachnoiditis

Meningitis

Meningitis is a disease characterized by swelling of the meninges. This condition is often seen as a potential symptom of arachnoiditis, considering arachnoiditis is the result of damage to the arachnoid mater, which is one of the membranes that cushion the spinal cord nerves and the brain. The arachnoid mater, incidentally, is the middle tissue of the meninges. If a patient has meningitis, they will also present with symptoms of this condition. These include a sudden high fever, headaches accompanied by nausea or vomiting, light sensitivity, stiff neck, a rash on the skin, confusion, fatigue, and irritability.
