Disease Explanation

Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that affects the plasma cells, a critical component of the immune system found in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are responsible for producing antibodies, which play a crucial role in fighting infections and diseases. However, in multiple myeloma, these plasma cells become cancerous and multiply uncontrollably, crowding out healthy cells in the bone marrow.
