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?

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.

View allI'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. Plus, these red boils are popping up all over my body and then disappearing. It's really unsettling. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

Im really confused about my dads D-dimer levels after his COVID recovery. His first test showed 1800, but we didnt find out until five days later. He wasnt showing any clotting symptoms, so we checked with a doctor who recommended blood thinners. We decided to get another test done at a more reliable lab two days later and it came back at 160. He had been taking dabigatran 150 BD during those two days. We re-tested after 15 days, and the D-dimer was 180. Im trying to figure out if the blood thinner could have caused such a big drop from 1800 to 160, or if its safe to just disregard the first test as incorrect and stop the meds. Could you help me understand whats going on?
Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

I recently got some blood work done, and my WBC count is higher than normal. I'm worried it might indicate an infection or some kind of issue in my body. How can I figure out what's going on, and what kind of diagnosis should I be asking for? What steps should I take next?
Always it must be symptomatic approach if you have no symptoms repeat the test after a week if its still on higher side that need evaluation like chest xray,Us abdomen,urine culture etc.,visit Physician for the same
