I'm looking at my blood report, and I see that my hemoglobin is at 11.4, and my ESR levels are elevated. I'm a bit concerned and wondering what this might mean. Could this be a sign of an infection or something else?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
a haemoglobin level of 11.4 is nothing to worry about. It is common for Indian women to have low haemoglobin. You can take tablet prosfer plus for 1 month, daily one tablet after food. Also raised esr can be seen even in normal individuals. It is better you are clinically examined once for signs of any anemia or other diseases. So kindly consult ageneral physician for further evaluation.

I experience dizziness, breathlessness, and lower back pain, along with pain on my neck between the shoulders and under my head, almost like cervical issues. I get leg cramps at night, and I've noticed hyperpigmentation on my face, my hair has become thin, and my periods are really light. It's starting to affect my studies. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I can do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of iron deficiency anemia. To help improve your condition, I recommend taking Ferrous Sulfate tablets. You can take one tablet (325 mg) once a day with a glass of orange juice to enhance absorption. Additionally, try to include iron-rich foods in your diet such as red meat, poultry, beans, and dark leafy greens. Make sure to also consume foods high in Vitamin C to aid in iron absorption. Remember to follow up with regular blood tests to monitor your iron levels.

I've been having some pretty bad allergy symptoms lately, and while they seemed to calm down after a few days, I'm worried because my blood work showed high levels of mpv at 13.2, pdw at 19, and plcr at 51.
