Patient's question:
What is multiple sclerosis (MS)? Is it serious? I really want to know, and I sincerely hope that those who know can help me clarify this. Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
Multiple sclerosis is a rare immune system disease that primarily affects young and middle-aged adults aged 20-40. Because women patients are approximately 1.5 to 2 times more common than men, it is also known by the nickname "beauty disease." It is a lifelong, chronic, progressive disease. Currently, the treatment for multiple sclerosis patients is based on acute-phase treatment and remission-phase treatment. It is recommended that patients visit a hospital for personalized and thorough examination and treatment.
