What are acute and chronic diseases?

Acute implies to any condition that is sudden in onset and hasn't been there for longer period. For ex. severe hemorrhage in accidents, sudden attack of asthma (remember though, asthma is chronic too, which infact causes these acute attacks) or anything that develops over shorter duration of time.

On the other hand, chronic refers to the condition which develops over time. Infact, it could be due to repetitive acute attacks that chronic stage unflods ultimately (so chronic and acute are interconnected, as stated earlier). For ex. Repetitive acute attacks of UTI produce chronic complications in long run.

Originally Answered: What is meant by acute and chronic diseases?

Acute and chronic diseases differ mainly by the length of time in which a disease has been going on. Acute is shorter and chronic is longer.

For example, acute rhinitis is the inflammation of the mucosal lining of the nasal cavity not longer than 7 days, while chronic rhinitis is longer than 3 months (between them is subacute). This differentiation is important because the bodily changes and the types of pathogens prevalent in each type (acute or chronic) determine the types of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for the physician to decide.

There could be some drugs that are effective for acute disease that aren’t effective for the chronic ones of the same disease, and vice versa...
