What are the signs and symptoms of multiple sclerosis?

 The signs and symptoms of multiple sclerosis differ from person to person, depending on the extent of nerve damage as well as the nerves that have been affected. While some individuals may suffer moderate symptoms that are readily treated, others may experience severe symptoms that need extensive medical intervention. The following are the most common symptoms of multiple sclerosis:

  • Spasticity and muscle spasms are caused by muscle weakness.
  • When the patient tries to move his or her neck, he or she experiences Lhermitte’s sign or an electric shock-like sensation.
  • Incontinence of the bladder and bowel
  • Tiredness and general body weakness
  • Vision issues such as partial blindness or distortion.
  • Depression is caused by a psychological impact.
  • Learning and remembering difficulties
