Hemolytic Anemia
Hemolytic anemia is a condition in which red blood cells are destroyed faster than they can be made by the bone marrow. This can be caused by various factors, including autoimmune reactions or genetic disorders.
Common Symptoms
- Fatigue
- Pale skin
- Jaundice
- Dark urine
- Enlarged spleen
