Calling Your Health Care Provider
Call your health care provider if symptoms indicate hydrocephalus. This disorder should be brought to the health care provider's attention promptly. Also call if the condition deteriorates to the point that the child cannot be cared for in the home.
Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if emergency symptoms occur, including difficulties with sucking/feeding, high-pitched cry, fever, lethargy or somnolence, stiff neck (unwillingness to bend or move the neck or head), problems with breathing, seizures, irregular heartbeat, or no heartbeat.
