Sclerosis Symptoms

Multiple sclerosis, like any other chronic disease, flows in two phases: exacerbation (remission) replaced with miosis and so on. It occurs in 85% of patients. This disease is called transient. Usually exacerbation lasts from 24 hours up to 2 months.

Often, after the first exacerbation, the disease does not manifest itself within the next 10 or even 20 years old – a person feels completely healthy. But after all, the disease appears again and the new exacerbation occurs. In the beginning, during remission (between exacerbations), occurs complete restoration of all temporarily lost body functions, but over time, neurological defect increases and persists even during remission.

There are other, more rare, versions of multiple sclerosis – for example, when the first sclerosis symptoms has been arose and, during some time, steadily progressed, at the same time there was no remission. Remittent course is common for those patients in whom the disease has developed in his youth, and primary-progressive for older people.
