Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic condition that affects the central nervous system, specifically the brain and spinal cord. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective sheath (myelin) surrounding nerve fibers, leading to communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. Over time, this damage can cause permanent nerve deterioration or damage.
At Emirates Hospitals, we provide comprehensive care for MS patients, focusing on personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs. Our team of neurologists and specialists is equipped with the latest diagnostic tools and therapies to manage MS effectively. From initial diagnosis to ongoing care, our goal is to improve the quality of life for patients through advanced medical interventions and compassionate care.
MS symptoms vary greatly, ranging from fatigue, numbness, and weakness to vision problems, difficulty walking, and cognitive changes. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial, which is why we utilize cutting-edge MRI technology and lab tests to confirm MS and rule out other conditions. Treatment at Emirates Hospitals includes disease-modifying therapies, physical rehabilitation, and symptom management, all aimed at slowing disease progression and reducing relapses.
