Several conditions and inherited problems can cause disability: genetic disorders, acute and chronic illnesses, violence, tobacco use, lack of access to health care, as well as failure to eat cor-rectly, exercise regularly, or manage stress effectively. Substance abuse, environmental problems, and unsanitary living conditions can cause disability.
