Malaria is a serious disease caused by parasites transmitted through bites from infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital to prevent complications. Symptoms: High fever with chills Sweating after fever Headache, body aches, fatigue Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea Muscle and joint pain Rapid heartbeat, anemia, jaundice (severe cases) Causes: Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites, mainly P. falciparum (severe) and P. vivax (relapsing). The parasite enters the bloodstream via mosquito bites, multiplies in the liver, then infects red blood cells.

Cancer is a group of diseases marked by uncontrolled cell growth, which can form tumors and disrupt normal body functions. It can affect nearly any organ and be either benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Key Points: Causes: Triggered by genetic mutations from inherited traits or exposure to factors like tobacco, UV rays, chemicals, or infections. Types: Includes breast, lung, colon, prostate, leukemia, and more—named by the organ where it starts. Stages: Ranges from Stage 0 (localized) to Stage IV (advanced spread), guiding treatment and prognosis. Treatment: Options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies—often used in combination. Prevention: Healthy habits—avoiding tobacco, eating well, exercising, sun protection, and vaccinations—can lower risk. Screening: Early detection through tests like mammograms, colonoscopies, and Pap smears improves outcomes. Advances: Research in genetics and personalized medicine is transforming cancer care with more precise, tailored treatments. Cancer remains a global health challenge, but progress continues through early detection, innovative therapies, and collaborative care.
