High CRP and ESR with abnormal CBC could suggest infection or inflammation. Recommend consulting a doctor and doing further tests like Chest Xray or USG.

My mother is around 70 years old. She is suffering from joint pain. Nowadays swelling is observed in her foot. She also has diabetes and high blood pressure, for which she is taking medication. Her Hb percentage is 8 percent and her blood report shows ESR greater than 100. Please prescribe medicine for her?

Hi doctors, I did my regular blood report which came normal, but my ESR was 25 mm. I do not have any symptoms nor have I had any infection recently. Why is it high if the normal range is 0 to 15? Please suggest. Is it too high? I am worried.
