What else is most likely a disease, that we do not know about yet or how to actually treat or help? |
anything abnormal is by definition a disease or disorder. for many of them it isn't even fair to call them diseases as we don't necessarily know the cause as they could simply in many cases be a part of evolution and we just don't study these things on timescales that allow us to treat them as anything but a disease. It is perfectly natural for living organisms to mutate and change over time as nature tries to find the best options for success.
