Sickle Cell Supportive Care at TheTole Acupuncture & Herbal Medical Centre
Sickle cell disease is a genetic blood condition that affects the shape of red blood cells. Instead of being round and flexible, the cells become hard and sickle-shaped, which can block normal blood flow. This can lead to pain, fatigue, and other health complications. Sickle cell disease is present from birth and is more common among people of African, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian backgrounds. While it is a lifelong condition, proper care and ongoing support can help manage symptoms and improve daily life.
Common symptoms of sickle cell disease include repeated episodes of pain, often called pain crises, which may affect the chest, back, arms, legs, or joints. Many patients experience ongoing tiredness and weakness due to anemia. Other symptoms can include frequent infections, swelling of the hands and feet, shortness of breath, headaches, and dizziness. Symptoms and severity can vary, which is why individualized care is important.
