Sickle Cell Disease :

Sickle cell disease is a blood disorder that affects the red blood cells. Haemoglobin can be called as a protein that is present in the blood. These haemoglobin levels will become abnormal, and the shape of the red blood cells will also become abnormal. Sickle cell disease will be an inherited disease. The lower levels of haemoglobin in the blood and sickle-shaped red blood cells can cause low oxygen delivery to the tissues of the body. Sickle cell disease will cause the blood cells to break down faster than normal cells, thus leading to sickle cell anaemia. The symptoms that are seen in sickle cell disease include pain, delayed growth and development of the child, jaundice, fatigue, and swelling. The diagnosis of sickle cell disease will be based on the investigation tests, such as complete blood count and haemoglobin electrophoresis. The treatment advised in case of sickle cell disease will be mainly by the prevention of the infection, pain management, transplantation of bone marrow, medications, and transfusion of blood.
