Meningitis is an inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known as the meninges. It can be caused by viral, bacterial, or fungal infections, with bacterial meningitis being the most severe and potentially life-threatening. Symptoms often include fever, headache, stiff neck, and sensitivity to light. Prompt medical treatment is crucial for the best outcomes, especially in cases of bacterial meningitis.
