Hemophilia
Hemophilia is an inherited clotting disorder in which the blood does not form clots properly because of the lack or deficiency of certain factors. This causes bleeding to last longer than usual.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is important in the face of bleeding that takes a long time to stop, frequent bruising with no clear cause, or bleeding into joints and muscles.
Common causes: It has a genetic origin and is passed down in families, affecting men more frequently.
Which specialist treats it? The hematologist is the central specialist in its workup and follow-up, and the pediatric hematologist treats children, in coordination with the pediatrician. If there is a family history or bleeding that draws attention, the advisable thing is to discuss it with a professional who can evaluate it thoroughly.
