A member asked:
My daughter has sickle cell. she has brownish hair and pop belly. is that normal? what kind of foodstuffs will be ideal to keep her in shape? worried!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sickle cell: It depends. If she has sickle cell disease, in the early stages they tend to have enlarged spleen. That will make their stomach looks protruded. To keep in shape, eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily does help, together with excercise.
