| == Overview ==
| |
| Multiple Sclerosis ( MS) is a demyelinating disease of brain and spinal cord affecting mostly peoples in the age of 20-40. Although it also affects the children's also.
| |
|
| |
|
| The disease course of MS varies from mild to to moderate in severity with the presence of disabilities as disease progresses over time. Its hard to predict the course disease for any individual who has been recently diagnosed with M.S
| | Risk factors ref. |
|
| |
|
| This article includes the valuable information regarding the course of disease, its progression and the newer therapies used these days to treat and slow the progression of M.S. Even after years of research and medical advancement still there is no cure and no clear ways to prevent MS from developing.

| | Multiple Sclerosis ( MS) is a demyelinating disease of brain and spinal cord affecting mostly peoples in the age of 20-40, Although it affects the children also. The term ''multiple sclerosis'' refers to the numerous glial scars (or sclerae – essentially plaques or lesions) that develop on the white matter of the brain and spinal cord.
