Diseases & Abnormal Conditions

Diseases come in all shapes & sizes. They vary depending on weather , or even economic issues. The circulatory system is known as the "Driver" system of the body. It includes the heart, blood vessels, & blood. It transport oxygen & nutrients to the body cells, carbon dioxide, & metabolic materials. Blood cells come in two colors, White&Red. The white blood cells fight off infections & keep the body balanced. Even though blood cells are needed for the body to function, an inadequate number of blood cells could result in Anemia. Some of the symptoms of anemia are pallor (paleness), fatigue, dyspnea (difficult breathing), and rapid heart rate, treatment include transfusions of packed cells and supportive theraspy during crisis. A ballooning out of, or saclike formation on an artery wall is Aneurysm; treatment involves surgically removing the damaged area of blood vessel and replacing it with a plastic graft or another blood vessel. The lymphatic system works with the circulatory system to remove waste & excess fluids from the tissues. The lymphatic system include lymph, lymph vessels, lymph nodes, & lymphatic tissue. Lymph is a thin, watery fluid composed of intercellular, or interstitial fluid, which forms when plasma diffuses into tissue spaces. Lymphatic vessels are located throughout the body in almost all of the tissues that have blood vessels. Lymph nodes  filter the lymph & remove impurities such as carbon, cancer cells, pathogens, & dead blood cells. Hypertension is high blood pressure. It has a systolic pressured above 140 and a diastolic pressure above 90 millimeters, it can include family history,race,obesity,stress,smoking,and age.There is no cure for hypertension but there are signs like increased heart activity, and a blood pressure of anything above 100 over 60.
