Brief Answer:
she has aplastic anemia
Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.
She is a case of aplastic anemia. Aplastic anemia is a rare, potentially fatal disease in which the bone marrow doesn't make enough blood cells.
Following are the different treatment modalities for aplastic anemia.
If it is a short-term condition related to medication, pregnancy, low-dose radiation or infectious mononucleosis, then you probably will recover without treatment. However, the symptoms can be treated. For example, bleeding episodes can be treated with transfusions of platelets and red blood cells, while infections can be treated with antibiotics. Women with mild forms of aplastic anemia also may be given oral contraceptives so that their monthly menstrual flow is not excessive.
At home, you will need to use antiseptic soaps, shave with electric razors instead of blades to avoid unnecessary bleeding from nicks, and avoid participating in contact sports. Also, your doctor may prescribe a stool softener to make sure you don't have hard bowel movements, which can make you bleed from your rectum.
The two main treatments for aplastic anemia that is severe and long-lasting are bone marrow transplantation and immunosuppressive therapies.
I hope my answer was helpful for you . Dont forget to close the discussion.Thank you.
