What is "immunodeficiency"?
Immunodeficiency is a condition where the body's immune system is weakened, making it less effective at fighting off infections and diseases. This can be due to genetic factors, certain medical treatments such as chemotherapy, or diseases like HIV or AIDS. People with immunodeficiency may experience frequent infections, longer-lasting illnesses, and difficulty recovering from infections. Treatment typically involves managing symptoms and preventing infections through medication, vaccinations, and lifestyle changes. Maintaining good hygiene practices and avoiding exposure to sick individuals can also help reduce the risk of infections for those with immunodeficiency.
