Hydrocephalus treatments are not one-size-fits-all.

For some patients, a VP shunt may be used to drain excess fluid from the brain to another part of the body, where it can be absorbed.

For selected patients, especially certain cases with a blockage, an endoscopic procedure called ETV may help create a new pathway for fluid flow.

The right approach depends on the patient’s condition, symptoms, scan findings, and overall health.

Most importantly, hydrocephalus care does not end after treatment; regular follow-up helps doctors monitor progress and detect possible issues early 🩺

Not all hydrocephalus happens the same way.

Think of cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, like a clear protective fluid that is meant to flow through and around the brain, almost like a drainage system.

👉 In non-communicating hydrocephalus, there is a blockage within the brain’s fluid spaces. The CSF cannot move freely, so it starts to build up.

👉 In communicating hydrocephalus, the CSF can still flow, but the body is not absorbing it properly. So even without a blockage, fluid can still accumulate.

The cause can vary from narrowed fluid pathways, tumours, cysts, bleeding, meningitis, or Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.

That’s why identifying the type matters. It helps doctors understand where the problem is happening and decide on the most suitable treatment approach.

Not every change in an older adult should be dismissed as “just ageing” 👴

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, or NPH, can cause a combination of walking problems, memory changes, and urinary urgency or incontinence.

Because these symptoms can look similar to dementia or age-related decline, some people may not realise there is a neurological condition behind it.

If these symptoms are progressively worsening, especially when they appear together, it is worth getting a proper medical assessment.

Hydrocephalus is sometimes called “water on the brain”, but it is not water. It is a build-up of cerebrospinal fluid, al...

Hydrocephalus is sometimes called “water on the brain”, but it is not water.

It is a build-up of cerebrospinal fluid, also known as CSF, inside the brain’s fluid-filled spaces.

Think of it like a traffic jam 💭: the fluid is meant to flow smoothly, but when there is a blockage or drainage issue, pressure can build up.

Symptoms may include headaches, vomiting, vision changes, walking difficulties, or changes in memory and behaviour.

If you or your loved one is experiencing persistent neurological symptoms, it may be time to seek medical evaluation.

After a concussion, feeling better does not always mean fully recovered 🤕

The brain needs time to restore normal function before returning to full activity, and rushing back too early, even when symptoms have improved, may mean the brain is still healing internally.

A structured return-to-play plan ensures each stage is completed safely before progressing. Medical clearance is essential before returning to contact sports.

Misinformation about concussion is common in sports ❌

From the belief that a concussion only happens when someone is knocked out, to the idea that helmets can fully prevent it, there are many misconceptions that may delay proper care.

A hit during sport does not always mean the same type of injury 🧠 A contusion is a structural bruise, while a concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that affects how the brain functions.

👉 Swipe to learn more: concussions may not appear on scans but can still significantly affect symptoms and performance. If there is any doubt after a head impact, it is always safer to seek medical assessment early.
