Transverse Myelitis is a spinal cord disorder that leads to inflammation on one or both sides of the spine. This spinal cord disorder also damages the protective myelin that covers the nerve cell fibres. Transverse myelitis can interrupt the messages your spinal cord sends to your nerves. People suffering from this condition can experience paralysis, muscle weakness and sensory problems.

Transverse myelitis is a condition that rapidly progresses, with the symptoms progressing within a few hours and a few days. Treatment for transverse myelitis usually involves medications to manage symptoms and reduce inflammation and progression. Other methods of treatment can include physical therapy and rehabilitation, which may also help improve muscle strength and function, as well as for managing pain and other symptoms.
