Ever wondered why Doc House keeps asking whether the patient is suffering from Neuro,Immuno or Physio related disease? Well,Ichi is going to save ur brain cells from pondering about this issue.
Diseases are mostly divided into 3 types which are:
1)Neurological(Neuro)
Neurological disease are like Parkinson's o Alzheimer.They affect ur brain functions like memory or nerve control. This type of diseases may be genetic related.
2) Immunological (Immuno)
This type of disease is normally caused by either virus or bacteria or fungi. H1N1,chicken pox and HIV are types of immuno-related diseases.Foreign bodies or antigens enter ur body and cause illness.The good news is they have to be organ specific. For example,if a flu virus enters tru food,it wouldn't cause any illness cos the acids in ur stomach would kill it,same goes for HIV,that's why kissing a HIV + person is ok.
Do remember that there are only antibiotics for those diseases that are caused by bacteria and fungi.
3)Physiological diseases
This type of diseases are cos by ur body itself. Our body has to regulate a lot of things but sumtimes,it makes mistakes. Cancers and inflammations is under this catergory.
How 2 differentiate if its a cancer or inflammations? Well,its simple. Cancers would end with -sarcoma or -oma while inflammation would end with - itis.
