Cognitive dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disabling factor and extends to the processes of memory, attention, verbal and logical thinking, visual-spatial, and motor skills. 40-70% of patients have a decrease in the rate of information processing, dysfunction of executive functions, and decrease in the quality of training. Cognitive dysfunction is also often reduced quality of life with MS. The most common methods of non-drug cognitive function correction are cognitive rehabilitation and exercise. This article reviews current research on the positive effects of regular physical activity on the cognitive functions of adults and children with MS.
