👉 Myelopathy is a condition characterized by inflammation of the myelin sheaths, which are found in the axons of nerve cells. This inflammation can lead to damage or destruction of these sheaths, resulting in symptoms such as numbness, weakness, and loss of sensation in the affected area. The exact cause of myelopathy is not fully understood, but it is thought to be caused by a combination of factors including genetic mutations, immune system abnormalities, and exposure to certain chemicals or toxins.
