Sickle cell anemia is a serious inherited blood disorder in which red blood cells become rigid, sticky, and crescent-shaped instead of round and flexible, according to the Cleveland Clinic. These abnormal cells can block small blood vessels, restricting blood flow and leading to severe pain, organ damage, and chronic fatigue.
