Multiple sclerosis and the role of physical therapy in the treatment of one of the common diseases that affect the nervous system, through the erosion of the outer membrane of nerve cells, where this surrounding membrane is the substance that protects nerve cells from damage and thus damages the nervous system and nerve cells, where the immune system helps in eating the membrane Or the outer covering of the nerve cell, which affects the work of the nerve cells. Damage or erosion and erosion of the outer membrane negatively affect the work of the nerve cells and its main function is to transmit messages to all members of the body. .
But if the outer membrane of these cells is damaged and faded, all the nerves of the body are damaged and destroyed, and thus these problems of the nervous system cannot be treated.

Therefore, periodic follow-up with the treating doctor should be required.
Complications associated with patients with multiple sclerosis:
The stages and incidence of multiple sclerosis develop in a group of people, but these complications lead to the occurrence of some health problems that affect people, and these complications for the late cases of multiple sclerosis include the occurrence of some other diseases, including:

Where blood plasma is used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis for late cases whose bodies do not respond to chemotherapy by injecting the body with steroids into the veins of the body. In this case, plasma therapy is used to get rid of multiple sclerosis.
