Staying Healthy
We hope The Handbook provides you with essential information to stay healthy. Managing a bleeding disorder involves more than just medicine. In this chapter, we explore various ways to maintain your health.
Staying Healthy begins by outlining key health information for individuals with bleeding disorders. We offer tips on preventing common issues and discuss the importance of medical identification, traveling with a bleeding disorder, and incorporating physical therapy and exercise into your care routine. Additionally, we provide general advice on nutrition, dental care, proper medication use, and stress reduction.
The final sections of Staying Healthy address specific topics such as menstrual bleeding, family planning, bleeding disorders camps, safety, and babysitters for keeping children with bleeding disorders healthy and safe.
