Go to the nearest hospital or call 911 if you develop a stiff neck, have convulsions, experience severe vomiting, experience weakness or paralysis, or become semi-conscious or unconscious. These could be signs of a brain infection like meningitis or encephalitis.  Some patients with mumps can develop meningitis, which may require further medical treatment.  Encephalitis occurs when your brain is inflamed. Left untreated, it can lead to neurological problems and become life-threatening. These could be signs of an inflamed pancreas, or pancreatitis. Bring your child to the nearest doctor if he or she experiences convulsions or if you suspect malnourishment or dehydration. These may be signs of a more serious illness or condition.
