Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

What is Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis?

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is categorized as a motor neuron disease, a condition damaging the nervous system. You may also hear ALS, referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease. The nerves responsible for controlling voluntary muscles are impacted by this disease the most. ALS is a progressive condition, indicating that symptoms worsen over time. Individuals with ALS experience progressive weakening throughout the body, leading to difficulty with daily tasks. While there's no cure for ALS, the right combination of treatments offers hope for improved outcomes and a better quality of life.
