inflammatory disease
Tissue irritation condition
An inflammatory disease is a medical condition characterized by chronic or excessive inflammation—the body's immune response producing swelling, redness, heat, and pain.
The category includes arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and asthma.
In these conditions, inflammation that normally fights infection instead damages the body's own tissues.
