Adult hydrocephalus is mostly caused by infection, hemorrhage, tumor and other factors. Clinical manifestations are headache, vomiting, blurred vision, etc. Generally, digoxin, dexamethasone and other drugs are needed to reduce the production of cerebrospinal fluid. If necessary, surgery is needed to drain hydrocephalus. Pay attention to limiting the intake of water and sodium, and supplement enough protein and vitamins.
