The human bodyHuman body experiences many wearsWear and tearsTear with aging, and sometimes human organsHuman organs and tissuesTissue fail to function properly because of certain genetic defectsGenetic defects, diseasesDisease, traumaTraumas, injuriesInjuries, disordersDisorders, and eventually with age. The day-to-day medication by drugsDrug can handle some of these conditions, but sometimes the administration of medicinesMedicine is not sufficient for complete repairRepair/recoveryRecovery of these disordersDisorders.
