Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, specifically the brain and spinal cord. In MS, the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers, known as myelin, leading to inflammation and damage. This can result in a wide range of neurological symptoms, which can vary greatly from person to person.

The progression of the disease is unpredictable, with some individuals experiencing relapses of symptoms followed by periods of remission, while others may experience a gradual decline in function. There is currently no cure for MS, but treatments are available to manage symptoms and modify the course of the disease.
