5. Suppressed Immunity
The immune system is your body’s primary defense against viruses, bacteria, and infections entering the body, and the strength of your immune system varies over time. The elderly and young children can be considered to have a compromised immune system by default, while the immune system of a healthy person can be compromised if they aren’t living as healthily as they should be – or if they suffer from a range of immune-suppressing diseases, which include HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and many others.
There are many telltale signs that someone is suffering from a suppressed or compromised immune system. The first, and sometimes often most dangerous, is the fact that the immune-suppressed will be much more susceptible to infections and diseases and get sick much easier.
More signs of a compromised immune system can include signs and symptoms like weight loss, a fever with no other seeming causes, anemia, and dark circles under the eyes.
