Understanding Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease is a hereditary blood disorder that affects the shape and function of red blood cells. It is characterized by the presence of abnormal hemoglobin, which causes red blood cells to become stiff and curved, leading to various complications and health challenges. This condition primarily affects individuals of African, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian descent.
