Hemophilia - Orthodox Medicine

Thrombosis, the process of blood and non blood clotting that can be normal and abnormal as in the case of atherosclerotic emboli that will cause thrombi, small circulatory clots closing a minor artery-capillary of the circulatory system and resulting in a local infarct.

The most common and widely known historic blood disorder (in humans), a condition in which the ability to clot in blood is highly and severely reduced for a couple of reasons caused by a hereditary genuine lack of the coagulation clotting factor viii, causing the affected patient and sufferer to bleed extremely and severely from the very slight injury, leaving the patient's body full of bluish bruises due to under skin bleedings and is usually typical at the legs.

Two types of the disease are known:

- Hemophilia A

- Hemophilia B

Hemophilia A, the classic and well form of disease caused by factor VIII deficiency though this form is a rare, inherited congenital bleeding disorder that causes a complex of symptoms, such as:

- Prolonged bleeding

- Easy bruising.

Hemophilia A is a disease of males, though it may occur in women. In most cases (35%), there is no family history and the condition is the result of an individual-spontaneous gene mutation. All races are equally affected.

Hemophilia A is a challenging condition for individuals forcing them for huge life modifications. Treatments for hemophilia A are widely and globally available, medicaments are released depending on the severity of symptoms.

Hemophilia A largely requires self-care and an ongoing support from a doctor or healthcare team.

Hemophilia B (Christmas disease) a very rare bleeding disorder causing symptoms like: 

- Prolonged bleeding

- Easy bruising

This disease is due to factor IX deficiency, a less common form than hemophilia A, affecting about 4000 Americans 2013, or ~20% of people with hemophilia.

Christmas disease is an inherited-congenital blood disorder due to factor IX deficiency (a protein necessary for blood to clot). However, just as all Hemophilia we rarely find any family history of hemophilia (less than 35%). And it's well-known that this condition mostly occurs in the second period of life (group of people older than 25 years old) as a result of a spontaneous gene mutation.

Christmas disease is a real challenge for patients suffering of it.

Treatments for hemophilia B mainly depends on the severity of symptoms. And just as Hemophilia A, Christmas disease requires self-care and an ongoing support from a doctor or healthcare team.

Reading and understanding hemophilia can really help make living with the disease easier.
