A member asked:
Could you tell me what are some benefits of meningitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: Meningitis is an abnormal infection/inflammation of the covering of the brain. There is no upside to this condition. There are anecdotal reports of brain infections in patients with brain tumors, who survived the infection and were found to have their tumors disappear. However, this is not an intentional treatment.
