Hemophilia ( ) is a rare inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly due to deficiency of clotting factors. This can lead to prolonged bleeding after injury and spontaneous bleeding episodes, particularly in joints and muscles.
Individuals with hemophilia may experience joint pain, swelling, and repeated bleeding episodes that can cause long-term damage if not properly managed. Early diagnosis and appropriate care are essential to prevent complications.
World Hemophilia Day raises awareness about bleeding disorders and the importance of access to diagnosis, treatment, and comprehensive care worldwide.
