It’s June and with Summer almost upon us, it’s a time to head outside for more fun in the sun! It’s also a great time to consider a few resources on maintaining healthy joints before engaging in outdoor activities. This edition of HANDI Highlights contains relevant content links about the anatomy and treatment of joint bleeds, safe participation in sports, and important tips on prevention and exercise. The selected resources include publications, articles, and videos meant for individuals with inherited bleeding disorders and their health care providers.
