Multiple Sclerosis

  1. A chronic condition affecting the central nervous system is multiple sclerosis.
  2. It happens when the immune system targets the myelin covering and nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord, which leads to aberrant nervous system activity.
  3. Multiple Sclerosis causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body.
  4. By encasing nerve cells in a protective coating, this sheath keeps them safe.
  5. When this sheath is damaged, nerve signals stutter or stop.
