title: Multiple sclerosis: Part II. Common functional problems and rehabilitation.
abstract: Cognitive impairments, often unrecognized in multiple sclerosis, include memory loss, new learning problems, denial and depression. Spasticity and incoordination of the oropharyngeal and respiratory muscles create functional problems with speech and swallowing. Genitourinary problems include sexual dysfunction and neurogenic bladder. Specific measures can be used to alleviate these problems.
