Swelling, following injury, is part of the body’s natural healing process. However, in the case of swelling of the brain (also called cerebral edema), it can be deadly. Because the brain exists within the confined space of the skull, swelling of the brain results in intracranial pressure (ICP). The pressure can cause further damage to the brain, by forcing it against the abrasive interior of the skull. ICP can be extremely dangerous, causing physical and mental impairment and even death.
