Specializes in Pain Management

Not likeley, but: The hydrocephalus is more common among infants and older adults. However, the diagnosis is usually based on: medical history, exam, neurological exam and brain imaging. In your case with neurological deficiencies seeing the neurologist for further investigation is a must.
