👉 Confused fluid, also known as cerebral edema or brain swelling, refers to an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the brain's tissues. This condition can arise from various causes, including traumatic injuries, infections, strokes, or certain neurological disorders. The fluid buildup disrupts the normal balance of intracranial pressure and can lead to increased pressure within the skull, potentially causing further damage to brain cells and impairing cognitive functions. Symptoms of confused fluid include headaches, nausea, vomiting, confusion, and changes in consciousness, making it a critical medical emergency requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment.
