Patient's question:
I have been experiencing dizziness recently and have been unable to eat properly, with poor mental state. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was a blood-related issue. How should I handle hemolytic anemia in a 10-year-old child?Doctor's answer:
In clinical diagnosis, some hereditary diseases can cause hemolysis. For example, thalassemia, and also diseases like G6PD deficiency, are all hemolytic anemias caused by genetic factors. Therefore, it is recommended that your baby should undergo genetic screening. Even the parents should also undergo this type of screening. If there are no issues, then the previously deceased baby may just be a case of coincidence and may not have a hereditary relationship across generations.
