style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sickle cell anaemia or sickle cell disease (SCD) is a <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/8-facts-about-thalassemia-an-incurable-genetic-disorder/">genetic disorder</a> that affects the red blood cells(RBCs). In a healthy person’s body, the RBCs the disc-like shapes freely traverse through all kinds of blood vessels. In sickle cell anaemia, the RBCs have a sickle-like shape that causes them to get trapped in the blood vessels thereby restricting blood flow. </span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Is it an inherited disorder?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">It can be passed on from parent to child that is why it is called an <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/hereditary-diseases/">inherited disorder.</a> The parents each have one copy of the faulty gene that causes the sickle cell trait. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">If the child inherits one faulty gene, they may have sickle cell trait but not the diseases whereas If the child receives both the copies of <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/7-facts-everyone-should-know-about-downs-syndrome/">faulty genes</a> from the parents, they are bound to have SCD.</span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>What are the symptoms of sickle cell anaemia?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The symptoms of this disease usually show up early on and some later. Early symptoms include <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/iron-deficiency/">pale skin colour,</a> <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/feeling-extremely-tired-find-out-the-reasons-of-fatigue/">fatigue, fussiness,</a> frequent infections and painful <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/gout-causes-facts/">swelling of limbs</a>. The symptoms vary from person to person and can change over time.

Couples who have sickle cell anaemia can seek advice from a genetic counsellor. The expert can answer questions related to risk and suggest choices that are available.</span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Can it be prevented?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">People are born with sickle cell anaemia, one cannot simply ‘catch’ it like a cold. If you have SCD, it means you’ve inherited two sickle cell genes from both parents. If someone in your family has it and you don’t, it means you have inherited one sickle cell gene. Medicines, precautions and some home remedies can help prevent complications caused by SCD.</span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Can complications arise when you have SCD?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/quarantine-life-dont-forget-to-keep-yourself-hydrated/">Dehydration</a>, <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/8-effective-ways-to-relieve-manage-stress/">stress</a>, changes in temperature and illness can create a lot of health complications such as severe anaemia, delayed growth, <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/how-to-prevent-eye-strain-caused-due-to-excessive-screen-time/">eye problems</a>, ulcers, <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/heart-attack-stroke-difference/">heart disease,</a> <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/understanding-schizophrenia/">neurological disorders,</a> gallstones, <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/respiratory-illnesses/">lung disease</a> and many more.</span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>What are the treatment options?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are a number of treatments for SCD:</span></p> <ul style="text-align: justify;"> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pain killers</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/old-diseases-making-a-comeback-amidst-anti-vaccination-campaigns/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Immunization</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/blood-donation-tips/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Blood transfusion</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Supplemental oxygen</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Antibiotics in case of an infection</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/does-drinking-hot-lemon-water-help-with-weight-loss/">Rehydration</a> via intravenous fluids</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Drugs that increase the production of fetal haemoglobin</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bone marrow transplantation</span></li> </ul> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Is there a cure?</b></h4> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Currently, a blood and bone marrow transplant is the only cure for some sickle cell anaemia patients.</span></p> <h4 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Lifestyle management with sickle cell anaemia?</b></h4> <ul style="text-align: justify;"> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Adopt a healthy lifestyle: <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/develop-these-healthy-eating-habits-at-home/">Clean eating</a>, <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/10-yoga-asanas-that-help-in-weight-loss/">physical activity</a>, and <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/sleep-hygiene-tips/">sleeping well</a></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limit alcohol and <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/how-to-manage-nicotine-dependence-at-home/">smoking</a></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Staying hydrated</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking medicines and supplements <a href="http://bit.ly/2Fxz3ih">as directed</a></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking care of your <a href="https://www.mfine.co/article/7-relaxation-techniques-that-you-can-practice-anywhere/">mental health</a></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Going for <a href="http://bit.ly/2Fxz3ih">routine medical check-ups</a></span></li> </ul> <p style="text-align: justify;">Sickle cell anaemia is a genetic disorder.
