Why would loss of cerebrospinal fluid be problematic?

Loss of few milliliters of cerebrospinal fluid will not cause any much problem, as in lumber puncture. But loss of larger quantity may lead to herniation of brain tissue, in either direction, leading to death of the individual. There are also chances of infection, leading to meningitis. That is very difficult to treat.

Why is a lumber puncture done in the small of the back?

The Lumbar Spine refers to the bottom six vertebrae in the spine. Most strain on the Lumbar spine occur between L4 and L6, where the back bows. This forces blood from the rest of the back to flow over to even-out the blood flow in the back. Therefore, the small of the back has minimal blood flow, making a puncture easier.
