Will hydrocephalus cause the fontanel to bulge?

Hydrocephalus comes in two types: obstructive hydrocephalus and communicating hydrocephalus. Obstructive hydrocephalus is characterized by the inability of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flow from the brain to the spinal cord, preventing normal circulation. In this situation, the pressure inside the skull can gradually increase due to the buildup of fluid, potentially leading to the progressive bulging of a child's fontanel. On the other hand, communicating hydrocephalus involves the CSF being able to circulate between the brain cavities and the spinal cord, merely resulting in an enlargement of the ventricles without the bulging of the fontanel.

Can a cerebral infarction recover?

Most patients who experience a stroke have relatively good recovery after active treatment and rehabilitation exercise, but very few patients can recover to the physical state they were in before the stroke. This is mainly because after the stroke, brain cells are damaged due to ischemia and hypoxia. Since brain cells are non-regenerative tissues, it is difficult for them to regenerate once they are damaged. The function of the damaged brain cells is mainly compensated by the undamaged brain neurons. Therefore, even with active treatment, it's not possible to return to a completely normal state. However, even so, it is still crucial to actively pursue treatment and rehabilitation exercises after a stroke, as these can significantly reduce the disability and mortality rates caused by the stroke.
