Demyelination is a process that damages the myelin sheath, which surrounds the nerve fibers and acts as an insulating medium to the nerves. As a result, it affects the conducting ability of the nerves, causing changes in sensation, movement, vision, hearing, and thinking. Viral infections, metabolic diseases, oxygen loss, and nerve compression can induce demyelination. There is no specific treatment, but giving medicines like Interferon beta-1a or Glatiramer acetate may be effective.
