🔍 WHAT IS SICKLE CELL ANAEMIA?
Sickle Cell Anaemia (SCA) is a genetic blood disorder where the red blood cells, which normally look round and flexible, become hard and shaped like a sickle (crescent) due to defective haemoglobin (HbS).
These sickle-shaped cells break down faster and block blood vessels, causing anaemia, pain, and organ damage.
It’s inherited when both parents carry the sickle cell trait (AS) and pass it on (SS child).
---
💢 WHY IT MATTERS
SCA is not just “ordinary anaemia.”
It causes repeated painful crises, damages vital organs, and can shorten lifespan if not properly managed.
However — with the right care, nutrition, and herbal-natural support, people with sickle cell can live full and productive lives.
