Hyeri, a South Korean singer and actress from girl group Girl’s Day, was diagnosed with meningitis on Sunday after being hospitalized for a severe headache and fever.

Hyeri’s agency, Dream Tea Entertainment’s official told the media, “The doctors are keeping a close eye on Hyeri’s conditions right now, but it seems that she needs to be under treatment for at least a few days.”

After her appearance in a hit drama “Reply 1988”, Hyeri was constantly under schedule taking interviews and appearing in talk-concerts. Her agency speculated that Hyeri’s health conditions failed because of her busy schedules.

Meningitis is an inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. Its common symptoms are fever and headache. Other symptoms include vomiting, confusion, or a rash. Because meningitis causes inflammation in nerve systems, if untreated, the results could be fatal.
