Degenerative disease
(Redirected from
Degenerative disorder
)Degenerative disease is the result of a continuous process based on degenerative cell changes, affecting
organs, which will increasingly deteriorate over time.[1]
In neurodegenerative diseases, cells of the central nervous system stop working or die via
cancers).[1]
Many degenerative diseases exist and some are related to
viruses, poisons or other chemicals. The cause may also be unknown.[3]
Some degenerative diseases can be cured. In those that can not, it may be possible to alleviate the symptoms.[1]
