What diseases can multiple sclerosis cause

summary

Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammatory demyelinating lesions of the central nervous system. The most frequently involved parts of the disease are periventricular white matter, brain stem and cerebellum. The main characteristics of the disease are multiple foci scattered in the white matter of the central nervous system, remission and recurrence in the course of the disease, spatial multiple of symptoms and signs and temporal multiple of the course of the disease. If you get multiple sclerosis, there will be a series of complications, then what diseases? Now let me introduce it to you

What diseases can multiple sclerosis cause

First, in different stages of multiple sclerosis, if the bilateral pyramidal tract is damaged, it is easy to bring urinary and fecal disorders. * in the early stage, the nerve function suddenly became impaired, and urine could not be discharged smoothly, resulting in retention of urine. In the later stage, neurogenic bladder was formed, with urgency of urination and increased residual urine in the bladder.

Second, spasticity is a prominent feature of central nervous system damage in patients with multiple sclerosis. Due to the loss of control of upper motor neurons, the lower neurons are hyperfunctional, and the muscle tension is increased, often accompanied by muscle weakness, which makes the patient's activity limited. The existence of spasticity of both upper limbs makes the hands inflexible.

Third, it can also cause painful tonic spasm, skin burning pain and so on. This is thought to be caused by the short circuit of nerve conduction caused by demyelination. The lesions occurred in the upper cervical spinal cord, and the hands and feet were sweating when the sympathetic nerve center was stimulated, and the hands and feet were dry when they were damaged.

matters needing attention

So if a patient has multiple sclerosis, it's not just this disease. Because multiple sclerosis can cause many of the above diseases, so a little discovery should be treated immediately without delay.
