What is the difference between a lumbar puncture and a spinal tap? Will it affect the child's later physiology and intelligence?

Complications of lumbar puncture include brain herniation, impaired cardiorespiratory function, localized or referred pain, headache, hemorrhage, infection, subarachnoid epidermal cyst, and cerebrospinal fluid leakage. The most common complication is headache, and the incidence of headache is related to the thickness of the lumbar puncture needle used. Generally, children have no problem with waist piercing. The more common one may have local pain for a few days, and the failure of the operation will not affect the intelligence. The two are two different things. As long as you press the child well, the surgeon will pass the technical level, which is generally very simple. I've done dozens of them, and most of them are done in one stitch. The chance of danger is small, but not absolute. However, there is only one way to diagnose encephalitis, and it should be done if necessary. Otherwise, the impact will be greater if the diagnosis cannot be made. Because the treatment principles of different types of encephalitis are different, I wish a speedy recovery.
