Meningitis is an infection or inflammation of the protective membranes (called the meninges) that surround the brain and spinal cord. It can be caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, or other conditions. 🦠🧠

Common symptoms include:

* Severe headache
* Fever
* Stiff neck
* Sensitivity to light
* Nausea or vomiting
* Confusion or difficulty concentrating
* Sleepiness or difficulty waking up

In babies, symptoms may include:

* Irritability
* Poor feeding
* High-pitched crying
* Bulging soft spot on the head
* Fever

Bacterial meningitis can be life-threatening and requires urgent medical treatment. Viral meningitis is often less severe and may improve on its own.

If someone has symptoms of meningitis, specially fever, severe headache, and a stiff neck—they should get medical attention right away.

“Science isn’t just in books , it’s in everything we see and do.”📚

Our ears are sensitive organs that convert sound waves into nerve signals for the brain. 👂➡️ 🧠

Science shows that prolonged exposure to noise above safe levels can harm the tiny hair cells in the inner ear, which do not regenerate. keeping volume low, avoiding inserting objects into the ear, and maintaining ear hygiene help preserve hearing and support long-term auditory health.
