What Is Multiple Sclerosis?
3. Movement Symptoms
The symptoms of multiple sclerosis will vary considerably. However, it is typical for patients to experience difficulties when it comes to having control over their muscles. For example, the patient will often feel weaker than usual in one or more of their limbs, and they can also feel numb.
A lack of coordination is another potential symptom, and the patient may also develop an abnormal gait. Tremors are another potential symptom of the condition. Some patients will also experience Lhermitte’s sign, which is the sensation of an electric shock when the patient moves their body in certain ways. This usually happens when the patient moves their neck forwards.
