I often have diseases - low immunity system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends what disease: Your body's defenses can be weakened by things like stress, lack of sleep and poor diet making it more likely that a virus like the cold or flu to get a foothold. If you repeatedly get more serious infections like pneumonia, sinusitis, ear infections or worse then you deserve to get evaluated by an allergy/immunology doctor.
