Answer:

A disease is generally a condition of gradual onset, having developed over a reasonably extended period of time. For example a back injury that has arisen as a result of prolonged lifting, carrying or bending at work, which causes degenerative changes in a person's spine, may be considered a disease.

How you feel? Where does it hurt? How did it happen?
