Abstract: The medical term “chronic” according to medical dictionaries is long-running, and it is used in reference to both symptoms and diseases. The length of time required to pass to obtain the designation of “chronic”, in symptoms or diseases, is not clear. In this article, we attempt to analyze the medical term “chronic” to determine the time period required to pass for the classification of different symptoms and diseases as “chronic”.
