Patient's question:
I would like to ask, feeling mentally unwell and physically weak, why would someone at the age of 85 still develop aplastic anemia?Doctor's answer:
Eighty-five-year-old elderly people experience a decline in the function of various organs, making them more susceptible to many conditions, such as aplastic anemia and cancer. Aplastic anemia may result from the deterioration of self-repair stem cell function in the bone marrow, which cannot produce enough blood cells to meet the body's needs. Elderly individuals are more likely to contract this condition due to their higher exposure to toxins. Paying attention to medicinal diet and health preservation, and minimizing contact with toxic substances, may reduce the likelihood of developing this condition.
