Multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord. In MS, the immune system mistakenly attacks and damages the protective covering of nerve fibers, called myelin, causing inflammation and scar tissue. This damage disrupts the normal flow of electrical impulses along the nerves, leading to a variety of neurological symptoms. The symptoms of MS can vary greatly from person to person and depend on which part of the CNS is affected. Common early signs include fatigue, vision problems, difficulty walking, numbness or tingling in the limbs, muscle weakness, and problems with coordination and balance. As the disease progresses, symptoms can worsen and lead to more severe impairments, including muscle stiffness or spasms, speech difficulties, and cognitive changes, such as memory problems or difficulty concentrating. Some individuals may also experience mood changes, depression, or bladder and bowel issues.There is no known cure for MS, but treatments focus on managing symptoms, reducing the frequency and severity of relapses, and slowing the progression of the disease. Disease-modifying therapies are used to modify the course of the disease by suppressing the immune system or targeting specific aspects of the inflammatory process. Medications can also help manage symptoms, such as muscle spasticity, fatigue, and pain. Physical therapy, occupational therapy, and lifestyle modifications, including exercise and a balanced diet, are also important for managing symptoms and improving quality of life.
