Introduction
Multiple sclerosis is a progressive neurological disease, an autoimmune inflammatory disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. By decelerating the connection between the brain and the body, multiple sclerosis worsens over time.

Considered the most common disabling neurological condition in young adults, this condition is chronic and unpredictable.Even though the factors that cause this disease have been around for a long time, it is very difficult to detect early cases of MS.
Multiple sclerosis affects the nerve cells, which are found in the gray matter of the brain, as well as the optic nerves. As the disease advances, the cerebral cortex shrinks developing as a result cortical atrophy. Demyelination involves the loss of the insulating and protective myelin sheath of neurons due to inflammatory processes.
However, in recent years, researchers have begun to believe in neuronal regeneration through possible healing of lesions.
