MS
Current Treatments
MS is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. It attacks the myelin sheath that protects nerve fibres. It causes inflammation and damage to the nervous system, brain and spinal cord.
Right now there is no cure. Those affected by MS must manage their symptoms to reduce the debilitating effects of the disease. This often involves a combination of medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle adjustments tailored to the individual's needs.
Ongoing research efforts and advancements in treatment are crucial to improving the lives of those living with MS.
