Neuritis is inflammation of a nerve. There are different types of neuritis such as optic neuritis (affecting the optic nerve), cranial neuritis (involving the cranial nerves), and peripheral neuritis (affecting peripheral nerves outside the brain and spinal cord). Each type can have various causes and symptoms.
