Can you get multiple sclerosis from surgeries?

No, multiple sclerosis cannot be directly caused by surgeries. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks the protective covering of the nerves, leading to communication problems between the brain and other parts of the body. Surgeries, on the other hand, are medical procedures performed to treat various medical conditions and do not directly cause autoimmune disorders like multiple sclerosis.
