Part A
Hemophilia is a coagulation disorder that is inherited bleeding disorder with blood not clotting in a proper manner. The main problems that are associated with hemophilia are internal bleeding, mostly in joints and muscles. The diagnosis for hemophilia includes physical signs with unusual bleeding as well as family history checks (De Waele et al., 2018). There are also laboratory tests on blood samples. The condition is not curable but can be contained.
High blood pressure is a circulatory disorder that occurs when the blood pressure gets high at an abnormal level. It usually has no visible signs (Lippi et al., 2018). The treatment includes a change in lifestyle and medication prescriptions. It may lead to some other conditions such as heart attack and stroke.
Cardiac arrest is a cardiovascular disorder that happens as a result of abrupt loss of the heart function. Happens as a result of electrical disturbance in the heart leading to disruption of the heart-pumping action that eventually stops the blood flow in the body (Lippi et al., 2018). The condition is diagnosed by sudden collapse, loss of impulse or consciousness, and loss of breath.
Castleman Disease is a lymphatic that can be diagnosed by the doctor based on symptoms and tests, including removal of the enlarged lymph nodes. The removal can be done by local anesthesia. The disease symptoms are similar to those of other cancers and lymphomas, which affect the lymphatic nodes.
Part B

The patients of the condition are in constant pain when they engage in physical exercises (Ortega et al., 2016). The hemophilic persons experience excessive bleeding during the periods that affect them.
