JACK Osbourne was diagnosed Multiple Sclerosis

JACK Osbourne was diagnosed with the disease multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disorder that occurs in the brain and spinal cord caused by many factors.
In an interview, Jack and the family agrees the news. 26-year-old star known to suffer from the disease early last year, just one week after the birth of her daughter, Pearl. 


He underwent the disease after the loss of sixty per cent vision in his right eye. "While waiting for the results of the examination, I feel very angry. I feel sad for two days, and after that I realized that anger will not change anything, it only made my condition worse," he said.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) affects women more than men. The disorder is most commonly diagnosed between ages 20 and 40, but can be seen at any age.

MS is caused by damage to the myelin sheath, the protective covering that surrounds nerve cells. When this nerve covering is damaged, nerve impulses are slowed down or stopped.
The nerve damage is caused by inflammation. Inflammation occurs when the body's own immune cells attack the nervous system. Repeated episodes of inflammation can occur along any area of the brain, optic nerve, and spinal cord.

Researchers are not sure what triggers the inflammation. The most common theories point to a virus or genetic defect, or a combination of both. Geographic studies indicate there may be an environmental factor involved.
People with a family history of MS and those who live in a geographical area where MS is more common have a slightly higher risk of the disease.

Symptoms
 
Symptoms vary, because the location and severity of each attack can be different. Episodes can last for days, weeks, or months. These episodes alternate with periods of reduced or no symptoms (remissions).
Fever, hot baths, sun exposure, and stress can trigger or worsen attacks.
It is common for the disease to return (relapse). However, the disease may continue to get worse without periods of remission.
Because nerves in any part of the brain or spinal cord may be damaged, patients with multiple sclerosis can have symptoms in many parts of the body.
