Hemochromatosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Hemochromatosis is a disorder in which the body absorbs and accumulates more iron than it needs, depositing it in organs such as the liver, the heart, or the pancreas.
Common symptoms: It may run without discomfort for a long time; as it progresses, tiredness, joint pain, changes in skin color, or abdominal discomfort may appear.
Common causes: It often has a hereditary origin, though it can also be associated with other conditions that increase iron in the body.
Which specialist treats it? The hematologist and the internist are the physicians who guide the workup of excess iron and its follow-up. If there is a family history or persistent symptoms, it is worth reviewing it with specialized care.
