Answered on 26th Aug '24
When the small lymph nodes which are like little bumps show up in the armpit, they could be caused by infections such as a common cold or a cut on your arm. The nodes are part of your body's immune system and help to defend against viruses and bacteria. If the nodes are swelling or you have any discomfort, it would be a wise decision to see a doctor. They can provide suggestions for strengthening your body's resistance.

Sir blood 8.7 tha report m maine dava bi li h but Mera fever nhi utar rha 1month se jyada ho gya
Female | 26
At 8.7, having a low blood level can cause you to become tired and weak. Your body might not have enough iron, which is necessary for feeling better. To increase your blood level take iron supplements and eat foods such as spinach and beans that are rich in iron. Also if your fever does not go away it would be good to see a healthcare provider who will help establish what is causing the fever so that you can receive appropriate treatment.

Male | 24
A fever that comes and goes could be an infection. The chills, sore throat, and blood test results support this too. Your MCV was low, MCHC high, and TLC raised - signs something's not right. Don't worry though, infections are common and treatable. But you must rest up, drink lots of liquids, and eat nutritious meals. See a doctor soon as antibiotics might be needed to help you heal faster.

Female | 20
You might have been affected by an infection with a virus that has in turn caused a blood infection which in turn may cause joint pains in your legs. Antibiotics can disrupt the equilibrium of our body's good bacteria, causing joint pain. For relief of the joint pains, you can try gently exercising, using heat or ice treatment, and taking a break. Stay well-hydrated and eat fresh and good foods to provide adequate support to your body during the healing process.

A high CRP may be a sign of inflammation in your body. Your doctor prescribing you fever medicines and painkillers is the correct way. Do not forget to rest properly, drink plenty of fluids, and listen to your doctor's orders.

To tackle the problem, doctors may either prescribe medication or transfuse safe platelets.

I have normal cold and cough and sputum with blood from nose and mouth both
Female | 17
You have a common cold and cough. When blowing your nose or coughing up phlegm, you notice blood. This happens because coughing irritates the delicate blood vessels in the nose and throat. However, blood can signify other issues like sinus infections or severe conditions. Pay attention to the amount of blood - a little may not be concerning, but persistent or excessive bleeding warrants medical attention. For now, avoid blowing your nose forcefully and stay hydrated to soothe your throat. If blood persists, consult an ENT specialist to rule out serious problems.

Good day doc, I noticed some traces of blood in my mucur. What could be the possible cause and solution
Male | 29
When you find some blood in mucus, it can indicate several ailments. Possible reasons could be a nosebleed, irritation by dry air, or an infection such as sinusitis. If you are facing a runny nose, pain in your face, or a sore throat, that could be a sign of an infection. Drinking a lot of water, using a humidifier, and visiting a doctor if it persists are the ways to go.

Systematic increases in immature granulocytes Good morning, Firstly, I will mention that I suffer from numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, as this may be relevant. These include Ulcerative Proctitis; Atrophic Gastritis; Last year, I also underwent two cervical electrosurgery procedures due to advanced dysplasia (CIN3). (The last colposcopy and colonoscopy did not reveal any suspicious changes) For a year now, my blood morphology tests have been showing an elevated level of immature granulocytes: The latest test (May '24) showed: Immature granulocytes IG - 0.09 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 1.00; Norm: 0-0.5% The rest of the blood morphology is normal, leukocytes in urine - within the norm. Previous results (April '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.05 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.7; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV) Even older (January '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.04 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.6; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV and basophils) There is a clear upward trend since last year. I initially thought this was due to extreme stress (CIN3, LLETZ etc). Now I am not so sure... Are these results very concerning and indicative of a cancerous process? Can chronic inflammatory states cause an increase in IG, or is it rather some kind of “acute” disease state? Could the fact that I rode a bike to the laboratory (medium and short-term physical effort) affect the increase in results? I would be very grateful for your response and advice. Best regards, J.
Female | 40
Raised levels of these are often linked to chronic inflammation similar to stress, in this case, it is important to control them initially. With the status of attempted diagnosis for specific inflammatory conditions, your previous experience, and the new procedures on the lookout for anything new, don't hesitate to let a doctor know. It would be helpful to get solid advice from your healthcare provider concerning your test results.

Hi, I did Antibody hiv 1& 2 Elisa test after 30 days of exposure. Then once again I did Insti antibody 1&2 screening tes after 45 days. In both test my result was negative. Should I do further test for my assurance...please kindly suggest me
Male | 39
The tests you took at 30 and 45 days are generally accurate, but for complete peace of mind, it's best to get tested again 3 months after being exposed. This is because it takes time for the immune system to make enough antibodies that can be detected by the test. In the meantime, if you start feeling unwell with symptoms such as fever, rash, sore throat or tiredness, please tell your doctor.

An ESR reading of 50 might mean there is some kind of inflammation in the body. Possible infections, autoimmune diseases, or even a few cancers can be the cause of this. Typical symptoms of inflammation include fever, fatigue, and aching of the body. To handle this, it is necessary to identify the main reason by doing other tests and talking to a doctor.
