Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It is characterized by the abnormal production of white blood cells, which crowd out healthy blood cells. Symptoms of leukemia can vary but may include fatigue, weakness, recurring infections, easy bruising or bleeding, and swollen lymph nodes. Treatment options for leukemia can include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplantation, and targeted therapy. The specific treatment plan will depend on the type and stage of leukemia, as well as the individual's overall health.
