A member asked:
Why does blood harm the brain (e.g. hemorrhaging)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several reasons: The blood can block spinal fluid pathways and cause hydrocephalus, can cause a localized mass and compress brain tissue, can be irritating and cause local vasospasm and potential stroke, can cause brain swelling and herniation with death.
