Cardio exercises strengthen the muscles that support your knee and increase flexibility. Weight training and stretching do, too. For cardio, some good choices include walking, swimming and water aerobics, stationary cycling and elliptical machines. Tai chi may also help ease stiffness and improve balance.
Hydrocephalus is a buildup of fluid inside the skull that leads to brain swelling. Hydrocephalus means water on the brain.
The term hydrocephalus comes from the Greek words âhydro,â which means water, and âcephalus,â meaning head. Simply put, hydrocephalus is excessive accumulation of fluid in the brain. While once known as âwater on the brain,â the âwaterâ is actually cerebrospinal fluid (CFS). The excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) results in an abnormal widening of spaces in the brain called ventricles.
