Epidural abscess

Typical symptoms of epidural abscess: chills, fever, general discomfort, and localized headache (mostly corresponding to the location of the abscess). Severe infections can show symptoms of high fever, chills, delirium, and meningeal irritation. Elevated intracranial pressure is often insignificant, and cerebrospinal fluid examination generally does not change much.
