It's an "Inherited Blood disorder"

Explanation:

what is "Sickle cell anaemia"?

A group of disorders that cause red blood cells to become misshapen and break down.

With sickle cell disease, an inherited group of disorders, red blood cells contort into a sickle shape.

Sickle cell disease is caused by inheriting the sickle cell gene.

The sickle cells die early, which causes a constant shortage of red blood cells. Also, when they travel through small blood vessels, they get stuck and clog the blood flow. This can cause pain and other serious problems such infection, acute chest syndrome and stroke.

Explanation in brief:

Anemia has three main causes:

blood loss, lack of red blood cell production, and high rates of red blood cell destruction.
