Specialist in Demyelination Diseases

Majority of nerves are protected by a layer called myelin. It's similar to the insulation on electrical wires. It facilitates the movement of messages from your brain through your body in the same way that electricity flows from a power source.

Demyelinating disorders are any conditions that cause myelin to be damaged and Scar tissue is formed. Because brain signals cannot travel quickly through scar tissue, nerves slow down their functionality.

Demyelinating diseases are of following types:

If demyelinating disease is left untreated, it can be life threatening, leading to seizures or coma.
