the microbe of tuberculosis enters the lungs and the body responds by sealing it off inside nodules or tubercles
It is a disease involving collections of inflammatory cells that can form as nodules called granulomas in multiple organs of the body. Most often located in lungs and lymph nodes. The average mortality rate is less than 5% in untreated cases.
A constitutional disease characterized by the production of tubercles in the internal organs, and especially in the lungs, where it constitutes the most common variety of pulmonary consumption.
Pelvic Inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes or any of the other reproductive organs. Generally characterized by recurrent lower abdominal pain.
Pelvic inflammatory disease most often affect the uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It can also affect the peritoneum and other pelvic organs.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a good example of this it is an Autoimmune disease. A disease where the body's own immune system attacks joints and other tissue and organs.
Pelvic inflammatory disease is abbreviated PID.
Usually it is recognized as a disease in the joints of the skeleton. inflammatory atrhiritis can however affect many organs and other parts of the body.
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease or Position-Indicating DevicePID - Pelvic Inflammatory Disease. Inflammation of the female pelvic organs (especially the Fallopian tubes) caused by infection by any of several microorganisms (chiefly gonococci and chlamydia); symptoms are abdominal pain and fever and foul-smelling vaginal discharge.
Not all STDs move up into the Fallopian tubes and the uterus. The disease is called inflammatory because the tissues that make up these organ become red and sore. They would look like a slight burn or rash. The microbes that cause this will continue until you take some drug that will kill the microbe. The pelvis is where these organs are found.
Pelvic inflammatory disease, commonly called PID, is an infection of the female reproductive organs. PID is one of the most serious complications of a sexually transmitted disease in women: It can lead to irreversible damage to the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, or other parts of the female reproductive system, and is the primary preventable cause of infertility in women.
It is rare, but possible, to have Pelvic Inflammatory Disease without having an STD. Normally, the cervix prevents bacteria that enter the vagina from spreading to the internal reproductive organs. If the cervix is exposed to a sexually transmitted disease -- such as gonorrhea and/orchlamydia -- the cervix itself becomes infected and less able to prevent the spread of organisms to the internal organs. PID occurs when the disease-causing organisms travel from the cervix to the upper genital tract. Untreated gonorrhea and chlamydia cause about 90% of all cases of PID. Other causes include abortion, childbirth, and pelvic procedures. It is rare, but you can get PID without having an STD. No one is sure why, but normal bacteria found in the vagina and on the cervix can sometimes cause PID.
Yes, Crohn's disease is a medical disorder. Crohn's disease is an autoimmune disease. Autoimmunity is an inflammatory condition that results when the body's normal defenses (our immune system) gets confused and begins to attack normal, healthy tissue and organs instead of viruses, bacteria and cancer cells. This can cause symptoms such as pain, nausea, and diarrhea.
