The human body is a complex system of interconnected parts with an estimated 100 trillion cells. The human body is made up of many different types of tissue, including muscle, bone, blood and more. Diseases are conditions that interfere with the normal functioning of the body and, if left untreated, can lead to pain or death. There are a number of different types of diseases that affect the human body, including bacterial infections, viral infections, and fungal infections.
Diseases that affect the human body can be divided into four groups: communicable diseases, which are transmitted through person-to-person contact; non-communicable diseases, such as cancer or diabetes; occupational diseases, such as mold exposure; and injuries from accidents or violence.
