Welcome to mbctalk,
Here I am talking about the most 5 incurable diseases in the world
1)Ebola: EVD is a viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF). Its name is derived from the Ebola River in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Ebolavirus first emerged in 1976 in outbreaks of Ebola hemorrhagic fever in Zaire and Sudan. Illness is characterized by the rapid onset of fever, malaise, muscle pain, headache, and inflammation of the pharynx. Six days following vomiting and bloody diarrhea, individuals may develop a maculopapular rash with bleeding at needle sites and bodily orifices.
Other symptoms include abdominal pain, fever, bloody vomit, maculopapular, malaise, joint and muscle pain, coagulopathy, chest pain, dry and sore throat, hemorrhagic diathesis, hiccups, nonbloody diarrhea, vomiting, chills, and fatigue, while later symptoms can include bleeding from the eyes, ears and mouth, depression, sensitivity to pain or seizures.
2)Influenza: Caused by RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae. The most common symptoms of the disease are chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness/fatigue, and general discomfort.
A very recent known pandemic occurred by H1N1 (swine flu) which was by the Type A influenza virus. Type B viruses are affecting humans less commonly than type A.
3)Lupus Erythematosus: Autoimmune disease which is categorized as a collection of diseases with problems in immunity.
Symptoms of these diseases can affect many different body systems including kidneys, blood cells, heart, joints, skin & lungs.
The main reasons behind SLE are genetics, environmental factors, drug reaction, etc. The warning signs of an impending flare include increased fatigue, pain, rash, fever, abdominal discomfort, headache, and dizziness.
4)Jakob disease: Degenerative neurological disorder (brain disease) that is incurable and invariably fatal. CJD is at times called a human form of mad cow disease, given that bovine spongiform encephalopathy is believed to be the cause of variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease in humans.
CJD is the most common among the types of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy found in humans. In CJD, the brain tissue develops holes and takes on a sponge-like texture. This is due to a type of infectious protein called a prion.
5)Diabetes mellitus: Diabetes is a group of diseases that affect insulin production and use. In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas can’t produce insulin. The cause isn’t known. In type 2 diabetes, the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin, or insulin can’t be used effectively.
Type 2 diabetes can be caused by a number of factors, including poor diet, Risk factors for diabetes include:
excess body weight, high blood pressure,
an unhealthy diet exercise, and being overweight.
