A disease is an abnormal condition affecting the body of an organism. A disorder is a functional abnormality or disturbance.A disease is a
condition that negatively affects the health or normal functioning of an organism. It can be caused by a variety of factors, such as infections, genetic mutations, environmental factors, lifestyle choices, and underlying health conditions. Diseases can have a wide range of symptoms and severity, and they can affect different parts of the body or multiple
systems at once.All Disease Name List Diabetescaused by the body’s inability to produce or use insulin properly, resulting in high blood sugar levels.Cancercaused by genetic mutations that lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division.Heart diseasecaused by a build-up of plaque in the arteries that can lead to heart attack or stroke.Alzheimer’s
diseasecaused by the degeneration of brain cells, resulting in memory loss and cognitive decline.Influenza (flu)caused by a viral infection that affects the respiratory system.Arthritiscaused by inflammation and damage to the joints, leading to pain and stiffness.Asthmacaused by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, resulting in difficulty
breathing.Malariacaused by a parasite transmitted through the bite of infected mosquitoes.Tuberculosiscaused by a bacterial infection that mainly affects the lungs.Hepatitiscaused by a viral infection that can damage the liver and lead to liver disease.HIV/AIDScaused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that attacks the immune system,
leading to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).Parkinson’s diseasecaused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, resulting in tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with movement.Celiac diseasecaused by an immune response to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.Schizophreniacaused by a combination of

response in which the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissues, resulting in inflammation and damage to various organs and systems.Poliocaused by a viral infection that attacks the nervous system, leading to paralysis.Osteoporosiscaused by a loss of bone density, making bones weak and brittle and increasing the risk of
fractures.Psoriasiscaused by an overactive immune response that leads to the rapid growth of skin cells, resulting in thick, scaly patches on the skin.Ulcerative colitiscaused by inflammation and ulcers in the lining of the colon and rectum, resulting in abdominal pain, diarrhea, and other digestive symptoms.Eczemacaused by an overactive immune
response that leads to inflammation and irritation of the skin.Multiple sclerosiscaused by the immune system attacking the myelin sheath that surrounds nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord, resulting in a range of symptoms such as muscle weakness, tremors, and difficulty with balance and coordination.Ovarian cancercaused by the growth of
abnormal cells in the ovaries, which can spread to other parts of the body.Glaucomacaused by damage to the optic nerve, often as a result of increased pressure within the eye.Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPDcaused by long-term exposure to irritants such as cigarette smoke, air pollution, and chemicals, leading to damage and
inflammation in the lungs and airways.Lyme diseasecaused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which is transmitted through the bite of an infected tick and can lead to a range of symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and joint pain.Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)caused by a combination of factors such as stress, diet, and changes in gut bacteria,

A communicable disease is one that spreads from one person or animal
to another or from a surface to a person. They include colds and flu. Pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi cause these diseases.Communicable diseases can transmit through contact with bodily fluids, insect bites, contaminated surfaces, water, and foods, or through the air.This article will discuss communicable diseases, their symptoms, and
how to avoid them. What are communicable diseases? Share on Pinterestsebastian-julian/Getty ImagesA communicable disease is any disease that passes between people or animals. People sometimes refer to communicable diseases as “infectious” or “transmissible” diseases.Pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, cause
communicable diseases. Learn more about the different types of pathogens here.SymptomsOnce a pathogen has entered a person’s body, it often will begin replicating. The individual may then begin to experience symptoms. Symptoms will vary depending on the disease. Some people will not experience any symptoms. However, they can still transmit
the pathogen.Some symptoms are a direct result of the pathogen damaging the body’s cells. Others are due to the body’s immune response to the infection. Some communicable diseases may be mild, and symptoms pass after a few days. However, some can be serious and potentially life threatening. Symptom severity may vary depending on a
person’s overall health and immune function.Four main types of pathogens cause infection: Viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa.VirusesViruses are tiny pathogens that contain genetic material. Unlike other pathogens, they lack the complex structure of a cell. To replicate, they must enter the cells of other living beings. Once inside, they use the
cell’s machinery to make copies of themselves.Bacteria Bacteria are microscopic, single-celled organisms. They exist in almost every environment on earth, including inside the human body.Many bacteria are harmless, and some help the body to function. However, bacteria can also cause infections that damage the body.FungiFungi are a type of
organism that includes yeasts, molds, and mushrooms. There are millions of different fungi. However, only around 300 cause harmful illnesses. Fungal infections can occur anywhere in the body.
However, they commonly affect the skin and mucus membranes.ProtozoaProtozoa are microscopic organisms that typically consist of a single cell. Some protozoa are parasitic, meaning they live on or inside another organism and use the organism’s nutrients for their own survival. Parasitic protozoa can cause various diseases.Learn more about
parasitic infections here.Common communicable diseasesCommon viral, bacterial, fungal, and protozoa diseases include:RhinovirusesRhinoviruses are a group of viruses that are the most common cause of the common cold. Symptoms of a cold may include:a stuffy or runny nosesore throatheadacheA person can catch a rhinovirus by inhaling
contaminated droplets from the cough or sneeze of another person.Similarly, rhinoviruses are spread by people touching their nose, eyes, or mouth after touching items or surfaces that have come into contact with the virus.CoronavirusesCoronaviruses are a large group of viruses that affect the respiratory system. This family includes the SARS-CoV-2
virus. Some coronaviruses can cause common cold and flu symptoms, while others can cause more severe outcomes.InfluenzaInfluenza viruses are infections that attack the respiratory system. Some potential symptoms include:A person can catch influenza viruses in the same way they may catch rhinoviruses.HIVHIV attacks the immune system of its
host.

This makes the person vulnerable to other infections and diseases. A person can contract HIV as a result of contact with blood or other body fluids containing the virus.The symptoms of HIV may develop gradually and in stages. They can include:The only way a person can be certain they have HIV is to have an HIV test. Although there is no cure for
HIV, medications can help to keep the virus under control or make it undetectable. Without such treatment, HIV can develop into AIDS.Learn more about undetectable HIV here.Other medications can help prevent a person from contracting HIV. People at high risk of HIV and those who believe they may have had exposure to it should speak with their
primary healthcare professional about these options.Salmonella and Escherichia coliNontyphoidal Salmonella and Escherichia coli (E. coli) are two different types of bacteria that can infect the digestive system. Another form of salmonella, Salmonella typhi, can also cause typhoid.They typically spread through contaminated foods, such as uncooked
meats and eggs, unwashed fruits and vegetables, and contaminated water sources.Salmonella can also spread through contact with live animals, including chickens, and through person-to-person contact.Some symptoms of these infections include:abdominal crampsdiarrheafeverheadacheTuberculosisTuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection that
primarily attacks the lungs. It may cause the following symptoms:A person can catch TB by inhaling tiny droplets or “aerosols” from the cough or sneeze of a person who has the infection.Ringworm Ringworm is a common fungal infection of the skin. The characteristic symptom of ringworm is a ring-shaped rash. It may be dry, scaly, or itchy.People
may contract ringworm through:close contact with a person who has ringwormsharing towels, bedding, or other personal items with a person who has ringwormclose contact with animals with ringworm, typically catsWithout treatment, ringworm may spread to other parts of the body.Athlete’s footAthlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that
affects the skin on the feet. It typically causes sore or itchy white patches between the toes. People can contract athlete’s foot through direct contact with someone who has the fungus or surfaces that have been in contact with the fungus.
For example, an individual might contract athlete’s foot after walking barefoot in locker rooms, showers, or swimming pools.
PlasmodiumThe protozoa Plasmodium genus causes the tropical disease malaria. The parasite primarily transmits through mosquito bites.Malaria causes symptoms such as:fever and chillsheadachesvomitingdiarrheamuscle painsWithout proper treatment, malaria can be life threatening. Vaccination programs are also effectively protecting people
from malaria fatalities.Lyme diseaseLyme disease is a potentially serious infection that black-legged ticks can pass to humans. It is the most common carrier-spread disease in the United States. The bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi causes the majority of Lyme disease cases. However, the bacteria Borrelia mayonii may also cause the disease.Symptoms of
Lym disease include:headachefatiguefeverskin rashLyme disease can spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system if a person does not treat it.Learn more about Lyme disease here.A person may develop a communicable disease after becoming infected by the pathogen. This may happen through:direct contact with a person carrying the
pathogencontact with bodily fluids containing pathogensinhaling pathogen-containing droplets from another person’s cough or sneezereceiving a bite from an animal or insect carrying the pathogenconsuming contaminated water or foods How to prevent transmissionPeople can reduce their risk of contracting or transmitting disease-causing
pathogens by following the steps below:washing their hands thoroughly and regularlydisinfecting surfaces at home often, especially doorknobs and food areasdisinfecting personal items such as phonescooking meats, eggs, and other foods thoroughlypracticing good hygiene when preparing and handling food avoiding eating spoiled foodavoiding
touching wild animalsreceiving available vaccinationstaking antimalarial medications when traveling where there is a malaria riskcheck for ticks and other parasitesTreatment for communicable diseasesSome communicable diseases cause only mild symptoms that disappear without treatment. Others may cause severe symptoms or potentially life
threatening complications. Patients require different treatment depending on disease process and clinical presentation.Viral infectionsVaccines are a highly effective method for preventing specific viral infections. There are several different types of vaccines.When a person receives a vaccine, they are receiving a form of the virus. The immune system
responds by producing antibodies capable of killing an active form of the virus in the future.If a person already has a virus, they may require antiviral medications to keep the virus under control. Bacterial infectionsBacterial infections can range from mild to life threatening. A person who has a bacterial infection may require a course of antibiotics to
help control the infection. These medications can help to kill bacteria or slow them down so the immune system can counteract them.However, many bacteria are developing a resistance to antibiotics, which poses a major health risk. More than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur in the U.S. every year. A person should only ever take
antibiotics on a medical recommendation.Fungal infectionsA severe or chronic fungal infection may require prescription antifungal medications and, in rare cases, intravenous medication.However, people can treat many mild infections, such as ringworm and athlete’s foot, with over-the-counter topical ointments.Communicable diseases are diseases
that can pass from person to person. The pathogens that cause these diseases can spread in various ways, such as through the air, contact with contaminated substances or surfaces, or from animal and insect bites.Many communicable diseases cause mild symptoms that go away without treatment.
Others require treatment to prevent them from becoming more serious.There are steps a person can take to reduce their risk of contracting and transmitting disease-causing pathogens. These include receiving available vaccinations, practicing regular handwashing, and maintaining good hygiene at home.
