Sickle Cell Disease :

Sickle cell disease is a disease in which the body makes too many of a certain type of abnormal red blood cells. This disease is characterized by the rigid, crescent or sickle-shaped red blood cells, which are round and flexible. This change can cause some troubles because these cells can get stuck in small vessels causing pains and organ damages.Some of the more common sickle cell disease signs include sickle cell pain, anemia, the swelling of the hands and feet, and increased vulnerability to infections. These symptoms are normally manifest early in childhood. The goal of treatment of this type of diseases entail addressing pain, infection, and complication risks. This include pain killers , transfusion of RBCs and other medications which support production of healthy RBCs. At times, a stem cell transplant can help find a cure too. These patients should consult a doctor often as early detection of any sickness and close monitoring of their condition will help them live a normal life.
