Additionally, which diagnostic studies would you recommend for this patient, and what is the rationale behind these recommendations?
- What specific physical examination findings and diagnostic results would raise concerns, and why? Provide insights into three potential differential diagnoses in this case.
- In the context of sickle cell disease (SCD), where the spleen may not function properly, leading to an increased susceptibility to severe infections, discuss the treatment plan for Miah. Furthermore, outline educational measures for the family to ensure effective management of the condition.
