Acute and Chronic Disease Management

Here at Glow Medical Centre, we offer treatment for both Acute and Chronic illnesses. So what is the difference between a Acute and Chronic Illness?

• Acute illness can develop quickly. It is intense or severe and lasts a relatively short period of time. Any condition such as; cough & cold, flu, infection, trauma, fracture- with a short (often less than 1 month) clinical course. Acute illnesses usually respond to therapy. Here at Glow Medical we can offer help and treatment through this time.
• A chronic condition is a human health condition or disease that is persistent or otherwise long-lasting in its effects. The term chronic is often applied when the course of the disease lasts for more than three months.

For example;

Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus, Osteoporosis, Arthritis, Asthma, Frequent Migraines, Consistent Back Pain, Heart Disease or Kidney Disease.
