Chakma health issues

Chakma communities often face health issues like limited access to healthcare, malnutrition, and infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and hepatitis. Poor infrastructure and poverty can hinder timely medical treatment and vaccinations. Additionally, traditional practices may delay modern medical intervention. Environmental factors, including contaminated water sources, contribute to waterborne illnesses. Mental health concerns can also be overlooked due to stigma and lack of resources. Addressing these issues requires improving healthcare infrastructure, increasing awareness, and ensuring access to clean water, nutrition, and essential medical services to enhance overall well-being.
