What are the common MS symptoms? MS Symptoms are different for everyone who has MS. Common MS Symptoms occurs in about 80% of individuals who have MS, and can be the most prominent sign in someone who otherwise has little mobility, limited function, and other symptoms. MS affects your brain nerve, which is controlled by your legs. So, in terms of treating MS, the medication works in lots of ways to affect the nerve.
There are many MS symptoms that include a variety of sensory symptoms, such as loss of touch, a sensitivity to light and sound, loss of balance, lack of concentration, and even trouble walking or sitting. MS numbness, tingling, and pain, occurs when the nerves are affected by the inflammation caused by MS. MS numbness, tingling, and pain, can also occur when you're just fatigued. This is also referred to as 'secondary' or 'sub-type' MS, because it occurs after you've had an episode of MS symptoms.
MS affects the central nervous system (CNS), which controls all of your body's functions. When it affects your spinal cord, which is associated with your brain and nervous system, then you experience what is referred to as 'secondary' MS symptoms. Because it isn't really affecting the nerves themselves, the pain associated with this type of MS typically goes away after a day or two, and you might not even realize you have it. Secondary MS symptoms might include weakness in your muscles, inability to sit up straight, dizziness, slurred speech, and even pain in your joints.

MS symptoms aren't restricted to the spine. The symptoms commonly associated with MS include persistent muscle pain and fatigue, problems with your vision, urinary frequency and bladder control, a decreased sense of smell, and speech problems. If you're experiencing these types of MS symptoms, it is strongly recommended that you contact your GP, a nurse or neurologist for a proper diagnosis.

While everyone experiences some MS symptoms, others are more severe or even disabling. Typically, MS affects the parts of the brain called the neurons, which communicate with each other through pathways in the brain called synapses. As spasticity worsens, these synapses can become more easily damaged, resulting in an uncharacteristic response to physical stimuli, such as moving your arm or leg. Spasticity can range from mildly annoying to severely debilitating, depending on its severity.
Another of the many common symptoms of MS involves changes in speech. Because MS typically affects your vocal cords and neck, it can often result in hoarseness or even complete loss of your speech. In addition, people who suffer from MS typically report having a significantly different speech pattern than other people their age. Frequently, this includes having difficult or strange-sounding words or phrases, or even saying the words backwards.

Finally, one of the more troubling side effects of MS is fatigue. The fatigue typically associated with MS is both more acute and long-lasting than typical bouts of exhaustion you might experience at the end of the day. Often, the fatigue occurs without warning, and you may even find yourself unable to fall asleep or stay asleep at night. While the fatigue itself is not necessarily a symptom of MS, many doctors believe it to be one of the hallmarks of the disease. It is important that you visit a doctor if you are experiencing unusually severe fatigue for longer than a few days.

While multiple sclerosis can be a debilitating disease, with a wide range of possible symptoms, understanding them all is essential in determining the best course of treatment. MS is a complex condition, and no single form of treatment will work for everyone. However, many of the common symptoms of MS can be helped through lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, stress management, and medications that help the body's immune system. Understanding all of your multiple sclerosis symptoms is the first step toward getting the treatment you need.
