Acute means "now", "immediate", "current". Acute is often found as a description of a medical problem. For example, "The patient was admitted for acute renal failure." If the condition is not acute, it it chronic. For example, "The patient received a diagnosis of chronic renal failure."

Acute in this context means short-term -- it hasn't been going on long. Exacerbation means signs and symptoms have gotten worse.
