Multiple Sclerosis Treatment
Multiple sclerosis (MS) can affect the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves, leading to issues with vision, balance, muscle control, and other essential bodily functions.
MS is an autoimmune disease, where the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues. It commonly occurs between the ages of 20 and 40 and is slightly more prevalent in women. Although there are several types of MS, the most common form is characterized by periods of stability between attacks.
Lesions commonly seen in MS are known as MS plaques, which can be detected in the brain and spinal cord. The symptoms experienced by patients vary depending on the location of these plaques. These plaques disrupt communication between the brain and the rest of the body, leading to various symptoms.
Therefore, for our MS patients, we tailor the best treatment plan for each individual. MS treatment is designed to be intensive yet manageable, aiming to alter the disease’s course and assist in symptom management.
