Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was diagnosed with a chiari malformation about 3 months ago. I go to see a neurosurgeon in a couple of weeks. My concern is that my symptoms are getting worse and more frequent. Tonight I am running a fever and if I bend over it feels like my forehead is going to explode. Is this something I need to go to the hospital for or is it a common complaint?
"As"per your clinical history is concerned as you have pain present so you need decompression surgical procedure so visit your neurosurgeon soon to evaluate it and do a physical examination.
Hope that helps
