Management of spasticity, pain, and paroxysmal phenomena in multiple sclerosis

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports
R T Schapiro

Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease with tremendous variability and innumerable symptoms. Among the more common symptoms is spasticity. Despite a lack of full knowledge of the physiology causing this phenomenon, successful treatments have been developed. Many of these have had a recent introduction. Pain and paroxysmal phenomena are surprisingly common in MS, but have not had the recognition their frequency deserves. It is not unusual to hear that they are rare in MS, but surprisingly they are all too common. Their management is changing as newer treatments are developed.
