Question

What should I do if my baby has hemophilia? They always have bruised and purple spots on their body. The other day, they sat on a stone and later the swelling was very severe. We went to the hospital’s orthopedics department, and they were referred to the hematology department, where it was suspected that they had hemophilia.

Answer

  1. Routine examinations; 2. Initial screening tests; 3. Coagulation correction tests; 4. Factor activity measurements; 5. Genetic diagnosis; 6. Select imaging examinations as needed based on clinical requirements, such as X-rays, ultrasounds, and CT scans, which can detect joint deformities and internal bleeding. There are many factors that can cause pediatric blood disorders. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric blood disorder, parents need to cooperate with the doctor immediately for treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to let their children develop the habit of picky eating or having a preference for certain foods, and should have a balanced diet.
