What diseases affect the circulatory system?

Answer 1

Diabetes amopng many others With each heartbeat, blood is sent throughout our bodies, carrying oxygen and nutrients to all of our cells. Each day, 2,000 gallons of blood travel many times through about 60,000 miles of blood vessels that branch and cross, linking the cells of our organs and body parts. From the hard-working heart to our thickest arteries to capillaries so thin that they can only be seen through a microscope, the heart and circulatory system (also called the cardiovascular system) are our body's lifeline, delivering blood to the body's tissues. also diabetes (i think)

Answer 2

Anemia,Leukemia,Heart attack,Arteriosclerosis,Rheumatic heart fever and Palpitation or irregular heartbeats are the some diseases and disorders of circulatory system
Diseases that affect the circulatory system are numerous. Even lung diseases have secondary effects on the circulatory system. The heart, arteries, and veins can each have specific diseases or conditions, ranging from inflammatory conditions to infections. If you research coronary you will find diseases that affect just the heart. Search for arterial for diseases affecting the arteries, or venous for problems affecting veins.

The most common diseases affecting the circulatory system are hypertension, arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis.

Some illnesses from the Circulatory System are:

Aortic Aneurysm: Aortic aneurysm is bulging in the wall of the aorta, the largest artery of the body. Aortic aneurysm is caused due to aortic dissection (tear in the aortic wall) or defect in the aortic wall. A rupture of the bulging may cause heavy bleeding or hemorrhage. Aortic aneurysm can be developed as a complication of certain other diseases such as obesity, atherosclerosis and high blood pressure.

Angina: Angina is pain or discomfort in the chest area, due to blockage in the blood vessels leading to the heart. The symptoms of angina are observed when there is insufficient supply of oxygen and blood to the heart. Chest pain may lasts for about 10 minutes.

Arrhythmia: Arrhythmia is a heart problem, characterized by irregularity in the heart rhythm. Symptoms may vary from very slow to fast heart rhythm. Arrhythmia can be a congenital or an acquired problem. In case of acquired arrhythmia, it can occur at any stage of life.

Atherosclerosis: Atherosclerosis is hardening of the arterial wall (usually medium and large arteries) due to formation of plaque or atheroma. The plaque may be composed of cholesterol, calcium and fatty deposits. Atherosclerosis may hamper the blood circulation or at times, it can even stop the blood flow. A person suffering from this problem experiences sharp pain in the affected area.

High Blood Pressure: High blood pressure or hypertension is a condition, when the systolic pressure exceeds 140 mmHg and diastolic pressure exceeds 90 mmHg. It is mostly caused due to hereditary reasons or unhealthy lifestyle habits such as heavy drinking and smoking.

Peripheral Vascular Disease: Peripheral vascular disease is disorder in the blood vessels that are not part of the brain and heart. This disease is caused due to fatty acid deposits in the arteries of the leg portion. It can be hereditary or develop as a complication of obesity, high blood pressure and smoking.
# Deep venous thrombosis # Hemophilia # Vasculitis ...To name a few.
