Multiple Sclerosis Affects Millions: Nearly 3 million people worldwide are diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), primarily affecting individuals aged 20 to 40.
Extreme Fatigue as a Key Symptom: Approximately 80% of individuals with MS experience extreme fatigue, which persists despite rest and can significantly impact daily life.
Muscle Weakness Linked to Nerve Damage: MS can cause sudden muscle weakness due to nerve deterioration, leading to difficulties in movement and essential tasks like breathing and swallowing.
Balance and Coordination Issues: MS may impair the brain’s ability to send signals to muscles, resulting in balance problems and coordination difficulties, affecting mobility and independence.
Vision Problems Indicate MS: Early signs of MS can include vision issues such as blurred vision and pain when moving the eyes, often due to inflammation of the optic nerve.
Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Common: MS can disrupt communication between the brain and bladder or bowel, leading to symptoms like incontinence and severe urgency.
Cognitive and Speech Challenges: MS may affect cognitive functions, including memory and concentration, as well as speech, with symptoms ranging from slurred speech to difficulty recalling words.
