I have joint pain in my wrists and ankles, especially in the morning when I wake up, which gradually decreases during the day but increases again in the evening. I also experience constipation, bloating, and acidity. I am sharing my blood report. Please advise how to reduce these symptoms?

In my blood report, ESR level is found to be 35 mm per hour. Can you tell me what this means? I want details of this report.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

There is pain in my body, joint pain, and severe weakness. The weakness is more after sleeping. My ESR is raised, but all other tests are normal. My urine report is abnormal. All other tests like RA, anti CCP, vitamin D, vitamin B12, sugar, and thyroid are normal except ESR and urine.

For the past three months, I have been experiencing occasional chills, fever, breathing difficulties, and body pain. During this time, I underwent multiple tests, including blood and urine tests, viral markers, HIV, Widal test, urine routine, CS for MP, HGM, ESR, PFT, HCV, thyroid, and malaria screening. All of which came back normal except for my ESR, which was elevated at 28 mm per hr (normal range 15 to 20 mm per hr). I would appreciate your advice on what this elevated ESR might indicate and whether any further tests are necessary. I have attached the test reports for your reference.
