Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease affecting the central nervous system, where the immune system attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers, called myelin. This damage disrupts communication between the brain and the body, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, muscle weakness, coordination problems, and vision issues. MS can vary greatly among individuals, with some experiencing mild symptoms and others facing significant challenges. While there is no cure, treatments aim to manage symptoms, reduce the frequency of flare-ups, and improve quality of life. Research continues to advance in understanding and treating this complex condition.
