Multiple sclerosis is a nervous disorder. In this disease, nerves of the brain and spinal cord get affected. There are lot of symptoms produced such as muscular problems, balance and vision problems. Each nerve of brain and spinal cord is surrounded by a protein layer called as myelin sheath. It protects the nerve and also helps in transmitting signals from the brain to the other parts of the body. In multiple sclerosis, myelin sheath gets damaged and this interferes with the transfer of signals from the brain to the different parts of the body that produces a wide range of symptoms.
Causes of multiple sclerosis
MS is known to be an autoimmune disorder. This is produced when there is disturbance in the immune system of a person. Immunity provide defense against infection. When immune system starts attacking the healthy organs of the body, it results in auto immune disorder. In multiple sclerosis, immune system starts attacking the myelin sheath of the nerves. The multiple areas of brain and spinal cord get damaged and hardened that disrupts the transmission of nerve signals to the other parts of the body. It is not clear that what the exact cause of multiple sclerosis is. But many experts believe that genetic factors and environmental issues also play an important role in producing multiple sclerosis.
