Hemophilia is characterized by excessive bleeding secondary to a dysfunction of the clotting system. Patients develop excessive bruising and bleeding with trauma.

Symptoms of hemophilia will include bleeding into the joints (hemarthrosis) and bleeding into the muscles. Hemophilia is associated with bleeding in the urine (hematuria), bleeding in the GI tract, and excessive bleeding after surgery.


The symptoms of hemophilia are variable, depending on the severity of the underlying disease.
