Guillian-Barré Syndrome

Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is a rare neurological disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the peripheral nerves, which connect the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. This can cause symptoms like weakness, numbness, or tingling, often starting in the legs and spreading upward. In severe cases, it can lead to difficulty breathing or paralysis. The exact cause isn’t always clear, but it often follows infections. Most people recover with medical treatment, physical therapy, and time, though recovery varies. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for the best outcomes.
