I'm curious about blood group compatibility for marriage. Both my partner and I have A positive blood types. Could this lead to any issues or concerns we should be aware of?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
In general, there are no significant concerns or complications for a marriage between two individuals with A+ positive blood groups, as they share the same ABO blood type and Rh positivity, minimizing the risk of blood transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in their offspring

View allMy arm's been hurting since I got blood drawn three times for some tests on January 25th. There's a bit of redness on my skin too. It seemed to be getting better, but I played squash today, and now the pain's back. Can you suggest what I should do?
It seems like your arm might be experiencing irritation or inflammation from the multiple blood draws. I recommend applying a cold compress to reduce swelling and taking over-the-counter pain relief, such as ibuprofen, to alleviate discomfort. If the redness or pain worsens, or if you notice swelling, it would be best to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm a bit concerned about my platelet count since my recent battle with a viral fever. It dropped quite a bitfrom 94,000 down to 64,000, and then to 43,000. Now that I'm feeling better, I know I need to keep an eye on my platelet levels. But should I really be doing blood tests every day, especially while I'm on my period?
It's not necessary or recommended to do a blood test every day, especially during your periods, as this can lead to unnecessary stress, expense, and potential infection risks; instead, follow your doctor's advice and schedule blood tests at intervals they recommend, typically every 2-3 days or weekly, to monitor your platelet count, and consider discussing with your doctor the possibility of thrombocytopenia or other underlying conditions that may be contributing to your low platelet count.

I'm just wondering if a hemoglobin level of 9.8 is something I should be worried about and if its a reason to go to the ER or if Im going to be alright. What do you think?
