Osteosclerosis and bone sclerosis are not directly caused by multiple sclerosis (MS). Osteosclerosis refers to an abnormal hardening of bone, often due to various conditions, while bone sclerosis can occur as part of the body's response to injury or inflammation. MS primarily affects the central nervous system and leads to demyelination rather than directly impacting bone density or structure. However, individuals with MS may experience secondary effects on bone health due to factors like reduced mobility or medication side effects.
