Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis

Overview

Relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition that affects the brain and spinal cord. It is characterized by periods of worsening and remissions of symptoms, including vision problems, muscle weakness and fatigue. MS can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, but due to advancements in the understanding of this condition, treatments have become available to effectively manage symptoms and prevent further disability. Drugs that reduce inflammation, inhibit immune system attacks and improve nerve regeneration are used to reduce relapses and improve overall health. Additionally, physical and occupational therapy can be used to help maintain strength and mobility. With proper diagnosis and treatment, MS patients can lead a full and active life.
