What should I know about this?
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease that affects the central nervous system. It can cause problems with motor skills, vision, and cognitive function. There are multiple forms of multiple sclerosis and physiotherapy which range from mild to severe symptoms affecting different parts of the body such as brain tissue, spinal cord nerves, optic nerve sheaths in eyes, etc. MS sufferers commonly experience decreased muscle strength due to reduced coordination between muscles and signals sent by their brains. This can lead to increased risk for injury when walking or other activities like carrying groceries upstairs etc. Physiotherapy may be helpful for MS patients to improve their gait pattern, reduce falls risks caused by poor balance or lack of arm swing while walking.
