An Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate or ESR measures the rate at which red blood cells (RBCs) settle down at the bottom of a test tube. Usually, the sedimentation rate of RBCs is normal, but it increases during an abnormal immune response. Deviation from ESR normal range indicates inflammation, injury, infection, immune disorder, or other chronic diseases.
The top ESR tests are available in Sector 47, Sector 49, Sector 18, Sector 62, Sector 137.
An ESR blood test is also a part of a complete blood count test available at Apollo 24|7. However, a doctor can order this test separately if you have a history of fever, an inflammatory disease or an immune-related disorder.
