Patient's question:
Thalassemia, how should I treat my child? This has been going on for a while, and as parents, we are very worried. We hope the doctor can give us some advice.Doctor's answer:
Because thalassemia is a genetic disease determined by genes, it cannot be cured by medication. Therefore, currently, besides blood transfusion and bone marrow transplantation, there is no other treatment available. According to your consultation, thalassemia cannot be cured. Mild cases can be managed through diet, nutritional supplementation, and the use of artificial blood plasma and compound arjiaang. For severe cases, blood transfusion treatment is also required. If one partner has thalassemia, the chance of the child inheriting the condition is about 20%. It is recommended to seek treatment at a regular and professional hospital.
