Best Answer

Hemophilia itself does not deteriorate a person's body. If left untreated, frequent bleeding into joints such as ankles, elbows and knees can lead to joint damage and cartilage deterioration.

Due to the contamination of the blood supply and unsafe production methods for the hemophilia medications pre 1993, many hemophiliacs were infected with agents such as Hepatitis C and HIV. These viruses can lead to deterioration of the liver and imune systems.
