Cause #1: Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is a condition where demyelination occurs. This means that the insulating covers (myelin sheath) of the nerve cells for both the brain and spinal cord are damaged. It leads to the disruption of the ability for the nervous system to communicate and can result in various signs and symptoms such as mental, physical, and even psychiatric issues.
Examples include ocular symptoms, trouble with coordination, muscle weakness, among others. Many patients with multiple sclerosis have some degree of tremors which develop when the disease causes damage to the pathways that control movement.
