Question:

What diseases are related to blood?

Answer:

Several diseases affect blood, such as anemia (low RBCs or hemoglobin), leukemia (cancer of WBCs), hemophilia (clotting disorder), and thalassemia (abnormal hemoglobin production). These conditions can impact oxygen transport, immunity, or clotting ability. Early diagnosis and proper treatment can manage most of these effectively.

Common Blood Disorders

  • Anemia - Low hemoglobin.
  • Leukemia - WBC overproduction.
  • Hemophilia - Lack of clotting factors
