Neither / overuse: Bursitis is typically an overuse injury

Question 3

is it bad luck or bad genes that made me develop neuroblastoma?

Accepted Answer

Neuroblastoma: I am afraid both of them . How old are you, by the way? 
Neuroblastoma is almost exclusively a disease of children. It is the third most common childhood cancer, after leukemia and brain tumors, and is the most common solid extracranial tumor in children. In the United States, the incidence is about 600 cases  a year.  I hope and wish you the best.

Question 4

is it bad luck or bad genes that made me develop cushing disease?

Accepted Answer

Bad luck: Cushing's disease is caused by a growth on your pituitary gland.  This disease can occur in anyone.  There is one condition called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (men 1) that can be inherited and it causes cushing's disease.  This is exceedingly rare so odds are you don't have this.

Question 5

is it bad luck or bad genes that made me develop liver spots?

Question 7

is it bad luck or bad genes that made me develop parathyroid tumor?

Both: Some of parathyroid tumors have no genetic bearing then you can call it bad luck, others hane genetic link as in men syndromes.

Question 8

is it bad luck or bad genes that made me develop ear drum rupture?

Accepted Answer

Nothing genetic: I am not aware of any geneticly linked predisposition to ear drum rupture. The ear drum is tucked away in a strong bone protected from most outside events. Cupping injury( in a fight) or proximity to a blast might generate pressure waves that would rupture your drum. With any middle ear infection a rupture might occur & essentially all kids have them but not so many adults.

Accepted Answer

Yes: Basically. They're DNA sequences. It's really complicated.

Question 10

Accepted Answer
