    abnormal hardening of body tissues

    Sclerosis refers to the abnormal hardening of body tissues, often due to excessive growth of fibrous tissue. This condition can affect various organs and systems, such as in multiple sclerosis, where it impacts the central nervous system, or in atherosclerosis, where it affects the blood vessels. The hardening can lead to impaired function of the affected tissues or organs.
