By running some blood-tests if you have symptoms that indicate you have the disease. Some of those symptoms are anemia, jaundice, pain in long bones, abdomen pain etc. One of those test is "sickle solubility test." If it is positive, you have sickle cell anemia, another one is electrophoresis.

How does your DNA Determine whether you develop sicle cell anemia?

Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the HBB gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called hemoglobin. This mutation causes the production of abnormal hemoglobin, leading to the characteristic sickle-shaped red blood cells. If you inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent), you will develop sickle cell anemia.
