I haven't seen this term used in a medical context before, but when I look it up in google I find thousands of examples:
" Fibromialgia es una enfermedad que *cursa* con fuertes dolores musculares."
"La dermatitis atópica es una enfermedad que *cursa* en forma de brotes."
"La migraña crónica es una enfermedad que *cursa* con frecuente dolor de cabeza, y que ..."
" Es una enfermedad que *cursa* con alteraciones en el metabolismo de los aminoácidos."
I think that maybe 'presents with' or 'appears' or 'brings about' might work here, or maybe "is characterized by" but I don't want to just guess. What's the most exact translation of this Spanish term in this context?
Gracias como siempre por su amable ayuda.
