Sir, my ESR test result is 84 mm/hr. Could you please explain the possible reasons for such a high value, and what treatment or medicines might be recommended?

ESR of 84 is high and usually indicates inflammation, infection, or autoimmune issues. On its own, it does not confirm a disease. Combine it with symptoms and get tests like CRP, CBC, and possibly ANA to narrow down cause.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test
