Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A chronic illness is one that is ongoing, with symptoms that may gradually worsen over time. It may have no known cure but can often be managed with treatment and lifestyle changes. Acute illnesses are sudden and severe, while terminal illnesses are those that are expected to result in death. Physical illness refers specifically to a condition that affects the body, rather than mental or emotional health.
