Chronic Illnesses

Chronic illnesses are long-lasting health conditions that often require ongoing management and can affect daily life. Unlike acute illnesses, which come on suddenly and resolve quickly, chronic illnesses can persist for months or years. Common examples include diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and asthma. They may result from various factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and environmental influences. Managing a chronic illness typically involves regular medical care, lifestyle adjustments, and sometimes medication to control symptoms and prevent complications. Awareness and education about these conditions are essential for effective management and improving quality of life for those affected.
