Abstract | Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is England’s most common blood disorder whereby sickled shaped red blood cells block small blood vessels causing both acute and chronic pain. Currently there is poor understanding about the experience of SCD pain. Furthermore, there is a recognised difficult relationship between SCD patients and health care professionals (HCP) which has been found to prevent patients seeking medical assistance. |
Keywords | sickle cell disease, pain, interpretative phenomenological analysis |
