nignag [31]3 years ago

The difference is surprisingly huge...

a non-communicable disease is usually a medical condition or disease that is not infectious. Meaning, you cannot catch it. For example; cancer, asthma, chronic lung disease, diabetes, and many others.

communicable diseases
are the complete opposite, it's majorly infectious meaning you CAN positively catch it. 

Hope this helps!

Narcotics are also called opioid pain relievers. They are only used for pain that is severe and is not helped by other types of painkillers. When used carefully and under a health care provider's direct care, these drugs can be effective at reducing pain.
