Inflammatory diseases are conditions characterized by inflammation, which is the body's response to injury or infection. This response can lead to symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, and heat in affected areas. Common examples include arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and asthma. These diseases can affect various parts of the body and may result from autoimmune reactions, where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues. Treatment for inflammatory diseases often involves medications that reduce inflammation, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or corticosteroids. Lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise, can also help manage symptoms. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving quality of life and preventing complications.
