blood pressure. It is not a disease, but an overdose. About the details of the disease below.
The words "intracranial pressure" and "cranial pressure" can be used in the article to make it clear to non-medical professionals. In fact, the correct name for this disease is "intracranial pressure", "intracranial pressure" or "intracranial hypertension".
SYMPTOMS OF INCREASED HEAD PRESSURE IN CHILDREN
Intracranial pressure in infants
How does the disease affect young children? Unfortunately, babies are unable to communicate their feelings to their parents, so parents will have to rely on indirect signs of increased intracranial pressure. Such symptoms include:

• 
  Weakness;
  
• 
  Cry;
  
• 
  Poor sleep;
  
• 
  Return;
  
• 
  Seizures;
  
• 
  Involuntary eye movements;
  
• 
  Swelling and pulsation of the larynx;
  

Increased head size (hydrocephalus);
Muscle tone imbalance - one part of the muscle is tight and the other part is loose; Swelling of the vascular network under the scalp.
On the other hand, nosebleeds, stuttering, sleep apnea, and high agitation are usually not indicative of increased intracranial pressure in a child.
TREATMENT OF INCREASED BRAIN PRESSURE
What to do if this diagnosis is made? If the increase in intracranial pressure is a secondary process, it is necessary to eliminate the primary disease - atherosclerosis, hypertension, osteochondrosis, hormonal imbalance. However, symptomatic treatment of high intracranial pressure is also important.
When high cranial pressure is detected, treatment should be prescribed by a physician. There are several ways to treat the disease. They are divided into conservative and surgical types.

CONSERVATIVE METHODS

Conservative methods of treating high intracranial pressure include taking medication first. In this case, the goal of therapy is to reduce cerebrospinal fluid pressure and increase blood flow back from the brain.
The main group of drugs that are indicated for the treatment of increased intracranial pressure are diuretics or diuretics, such as Furasemide, Diacarb. If tumors or meningitis are present, anti-tumor steroid anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed. Also taking drugs that improve venous blood flow, potassium supplements (Asparkam). Studies have shown that nootropic drugs are ineffective when there is an increase in intracranial pressure.
If intracranial pressure is caused by another disease, medications are used to treat the underlying disease.
Physiotherapy (especially magnetic exposure to the neck, electrophoresis with drugs), neck and spine massage, therapeutic physical training, acupuncture, circular showers can be used in the treatment of high CIB in adults. These methods are mainly used in mild cases of increased intracranial pressure, when there is no immediate threat to life. In addition, for prophylactic purposes, the patient can massage the base of the neck, neck and head daily.
SURGICAL METHODS
In severe cases, surgery is performed. Currently, the most common type of operation is shunt. Bypass is the insertion of a special tube (catheter) through which excess spinal fluid is sent to the abdominal cavity.
This method also has drawbacks, especially as the catheter can become clogged and fail. In addition, the probability of complications in this method is also high. And for some as a baby gets older, he or she will outgrow this. The liquor can also be sent to special sterile containers. Another method involves the transfer of excess cerebrospinal fluid from the ventricles of the brain to the space between the cerebral cortex. In this case, the risk of complications is minimal.

  Such complications include:
  
• 
  Stroke;
  
• 
  Impaired motor coordination as a result of brain injury;
  
• 
  Disorders of reflexes, arrhythmias as a result of oppression of the brainstem;
  
• 
  Paralysis;
