Background: We assessed the prevalence and risks associated with pain during and after a multiple sclerosis (MS) relapse, and the impact of pain on quality of life (QoL), in MS patients. Methods: 117 patients suffering an acute MS relapse were evaluated with clinician- and patient-reported outcomes, including the expanded disability status scale (EDSS), Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale (MSIS-29), and MS Walking scale-12 (MSWS-12). Relapse-related pain was assessed via the short-form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire upon first visit (relapse onset) and at 6 weeks after treatment with intravenous methylprednisolone (follow-up visit). Results: Pain was present in 80% of patients at relapse onset. Patients with pain were more impaired physically (higher mean scores on MSIS-29phys and MSWS-12 and lower mean scores on SF-36 role physical, physical, and vitality scales) at relapse and six weeks after. In total, 74% of patients with MS relapse reported a poorer QoL due to pain. A lower psychological well-being was correlated with greater pain (MSIS29psy score). An increased number of prior relapses was a predictor of more pain at relapse onset. Conclusions: Pain was common at the time of MS relapse and improved, but was still significant, six weeks after treatment with corticosteroids. Further studies are required to better understand relapse-related pain.
