MS symptoms:
weakness

In relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS), weakness can be a result of a problem with nerve signals. You may also experience weakness from lack of activity. Sometimes you may be less active because of fatigue, stiffness or a relapse. The longer you are inactive, the weaker your muscles can become.

Questions your health care professional might ask:

  • Do you ever feel too weak to do things?
  • Do you feel like you need to put more effort than normal into everyday tasks?
  • Are there specific parts of your body that feel weak, or do you feel weak all over?

Talk to your health care professional to determine the source of your weakness and strategies that may help you manage it.
