There are some diseases that occur later in your life and not when you are born. These are tumors, polio, a stroke, schizophrenia, Alzheimers disease, and meningitis, to name just a few. Once you have these things, they won't go away without treatment. Many people do not get cured. Some people even die.
Tumors were first found out by a Greek man named Falen. A beginning tumor can grow slowly, whereas its counterpart, a malignant tumor might shoot up so fast that it could kill you in just months. Polio is a disease that affects your muscles. Polio is a virus that attacks the brain and could make you paralyzed for life. Polio only grows in living cells. They travel along the nerve fibers or are carried by your blood to the central nervous system.
