Is lumbar puncture for meningitis harmful?

Clinically, if a patient is considered to suffer from meningitis, lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid examination should basically be performed. Clinically, lumbar puncture is about 90 percent safe and does not cause much harm to the human body.

Except for a few cases, for example, the patient has local infection after lumbar puncture or local infection spread due to lax local disinfection after puncture, and a few patients with relatively high intracranial pressure may develop brain herniation after puncture, which is life-threatening. Both of these cases are very rare, which means that in most cases, a lumbar puncture is not harmful to the human body.
