Haemophilia and Von Willebrand disease are genetic disorders that impair the body's blood clotting ability.
Haemophilia and Von Willebrand disease are genetic disorders that impair the body's blood clotting ability. Patients either lack or have too low a level of certain proteins (known as clotting factors) in their blood, or these proteins are unable to react properly. The main symptom common to all sufferers is an increased tendency to bleed, which presents with frequent bruises and a slow blood clotting process. These diseases should be discussed with a doctor.
