A member asked:

Please tell me what a blood disorder is?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vague term!: It does not tell you anymore than saying that your blood is not entirely normal. The next thing to do is to find out what is wrong ? and in which blood cells is there a disorder???? It can be in Red cells, white cells or in your platelets(3 main cell types found in our blood)
