Following EBP for treatment of SIH, new onset of headache having a different pattern and location should always be monitored for the occurrence of RIH. A lumbar puncture should be done if the symptoms of elevated CSF pressure become intolerable or if the diagnosis is uncertain. Lack of early diagnosis and treatment and differentiation from SIH can cause complications and could affect the optic nerves.
