Conquer Chiari Walk Across America 2022
What is Chiari Malformation?
Chiari malformation is a structural abnormality of the brain, specifically the cerebellum and brainstem. It occurs when the cerebellar tonsils extend below the base of the skull, putting pressure on the spinal cord and blocking the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. This can lead to a wide range of symptoms including headaches, neck pain, balance problems, and more.
