Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain. [5] The severity can be variable with symptoms including reduction or alteration in consciousness, aphasia, headache, fever, confusion, a stiff neck, and vomiting.

Mild symptoms include headaches, depression, anxiety and in some cases, memory loss. In some cases, inflammation of the brain can be seen if the brain or the nervous ...

Increased alcohol intake is associated with damage to brain regions including the frontal lobe , [ 3 ] limbic system , and cerebellum , [ 4 ] with widespread ...
