How is multiple sclerosis treated?

Patient's question:

The effect is even worse than when I was in the hospital. When discharged, the doctor advised me to supplement calcium, and I didn't need any other medication. Recently, these past few days, I've been experiencing lower limb edema and poor urination. My whole body is in pain. I'm collapsing in bed? I want to consult—Is the lower limb edema caused by the hormone medication leading to elevated blood sugar, which could cause swelling? And I'm also feeling nauseous—is this also related?

Doctor's answer:

Multiple sclerosis is curable. General treatments include corticosteroid injections and immunomodulatory medications. Severe cases may require surgical intervention. It is recommended that patients consume more foods rich in vitamin C and fiber, and also eat more soy products. Avoid high cholesterol, high-fat, spicy, and fried foods. Engage in appropriate exercise, ensure sufficient sleep, and avoid overexertion, as these can aid in recovery.
