Multiple sclerosis is a progressive autoimmune disease, which means the condition of the patient gets worse with time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In multiple sclerosis, the immune system attacks the central nervous system and damages the nerve fibres. Due to the damaged nerve fibres, the brain becomes incapable of communicating with the rest of the body. As a result, the patients start experiencing symptoms such as pain, fatigue, tingling or numbness in the limbs, troubled or slurred speech, blurred vision, drop foot, muscle weakness, muscle spasms, trouble walking, and depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, a combination of strong medicines is used to treat MS, which, over a while stop working. However, treatment involving&nbsp;umbilical cord blood stem cells has been found effective in treating MS without any major side effects. Stem cells can convert themselves into different kinds of cells and help in repairing and regenerating the damaged tissues that disrupt the connection between the brain and the body. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/\">Umbilical cord blood stem cells<\/a>&nbsp;can also help in controlling inflammation experienced by MS patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1.jpg\" alt=\"baby in the womb\" class=\"wp-image-3865\" width=\"754\" height=\"754\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1.jpg 612w, https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gettyimages-499157713-612x612-1-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 754px) 100vw, 754px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Umbilical cord blood extracted during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cordlifeindia.com\/blog\/cord-blood-collected-stored\/\">baby stem cell collection procedure<\/a> can provide a huge number of mesenchymal cells that can regulate and control the immune system and stop them from attacking the nerve fibres in MS patients.
