Patient's question:
My classmate is hospitalized. I will go see him. The doctor said it is aplastic anemia. It is said to be difficult to treat, but usually he hasn't noticed any abnormalities, and his daily life is the same as ours. Sometimes we play basketball together. This disease comes on suddenly. What are the symptoms of aplastic anemia?Doctor's answer:
How many symptoms does aplastic anemia have? Anemia has symptoms such as paleness, fatigue, dizziness, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath. Acute and severe cases gradually improve, while mild cases are chronic. Respiratory infections are the most common type of infection, followed by gastrointestinal, urinary-genital, and skin-mucosal infections. The majority of acute and severe patients have a fever below 39 degrees Celsius. Some patients develop high fever, which is difficult to control from the onset to the brink of death. Mild high fever cases are relatively easier to control and rarely last more than a week. Acute or severe patients with skin peeling may have varying degrees of bleeding in the skin, mucous membranes, and internal organs. The skin may show as petechiae or large bruises, blistered skin in the oral mucosa, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, conjunctival bleeding, etc.
