A swollen cerebellum is extremely dangerous and requires immediate medical attention. Death is a real danger. Severe brain damage is also possible, including being reduced to a vegetative state. Less severe problems, like speech limitations or memory issues, can also occur. With prompt treatment, there is sometimes no lasting damage.
