MS relapses can be worrying, confusing and unpredictable. How do you know if you're experiencing a relapse, a temporary flare-up of symptoms, or the effects of something else like stress, heat or an infection?

In this episode of MS Trust Podcast, we are joined by MS nurse Cat Alexander to answer some of the most common questions about relapses. We explore what relapses are, how to recognise the signs, when symptoms may need urgent attention, what treatment options are available, and what recovery can look like.

You'll also hear practical advice and personal experiences from the MS Trust community on how they manage relapses.
