How is transverse myelitis treated?
Treatment is aimed at calming the immune response that caused the spinal cord injury in the first place. To this end, high doses of intravenous and then oral steroids are the first-line treatments for transverse myelitis.
What is transversal-?
Transverse Myelitis is the inflammation of the spinal cord.
A transverse line. Does transverse mean the same thing as perpendicular?
no
How do you use transverse in a sentence?
Transverse means lying and exending across.
What expression gives the length of the transverse axis of the hyperbola?
The length of the transverse axis of a hyperbola is given by the expression ( 2a ), where ( a ) is the distance from the center of the hyperbola to each vertex along the transverse axis. For a hyperbola centered at the origin with the standard form ( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 ) (horizontal transverse axis) or ( \frac{y^2}{a^2} - \frac{x^2}{b^2} = 1 ) (vertical transverse axis), the value of ( a ) determines the extent of the transverse axis. Thus, the transverse axis length varies directly with ( a ).
What is the pathophysiology of transverse myelitis?
Transverse Myelitis is the inflammation of the spinal cord.
Can transverse myelitis return again?
what does this mean: Mild Myelomalacia consistant with history of transverse myelitis
What is the best exercise for a transverse myelitis patient?

What are common circumstances for getting transverse myelitis?
Transverse myelitis often occurs in people who are recovering from a recent viral illness, including chickenpox, herpes simplex, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, influenza, and measles.
How is transverse myelitis treated?
Treatment is aimed at calming the immune response that caused the spinal cord injury in the first place. To this end, high doses of intravenous and then oral steroids are the first-line treatments for transverse myelitis.
What causes the symptoms of transverse myelitis?
The symptoms of transverse myelitis are due to damage and/or destruction of the myelin sheath, the fatty white covering of nerve fibers that serves both to insulate the nerve fibers and to speed nervous conduction along them.
What are the causes of transverse myelitis?
Transverse myelitis has many different causes, often triggered by a variety of viral and bacterial infections (especially those associated with a rash such as measles or chickenpox ). Once the infection subsides, the inflammation in the cord begins.
What is the treatment for transverse myelitis?
I'm not really sure how to answer this question. I have had Transverse Myelitis, and I was fortunate enough not to be paralyzed because of it. My TM was treated so my spinal cord wasn't swollen, but I'll still carry the diagnoses with me for the rest of my life, and I still have residual effects, like a hand tremor. I suppose the answer would be no, because it can't be cured, but it can be treated. When there is a cure for TM, I'll be the first one to get it.
What is likelihood of Transverse Myelitis coming back a second time?
The chances of this are very very very slim, but it is possible. There is a blood test you can get that will tell you if you are likely to get it again.
What is transversal-?
Transverse Myelitis is the inflammation of the spinal cord.
What is transverse myletis?
Transverse myelitis is a neurological condition characterized by inflammation of the spinal cord. This inflammation can result in damage to the myelin (protective covering of nerve fibers), leading to symptoms such as weakness, sensory disturbances, and bladder and bowel dysfunction. Treatment typically involves corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and manage symptoms.
