Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder. It affects the shape of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body.
Red blood cells are usually round and flexible, so they can move easily through blood vessels. In sickle cell disease, some red blood cells become crescent or sickle-shaped. These cells also become rigid and sticky, restricting the blood flow.
