A hemoglobin level of 16.3 g/dL is slightly above the average range. While often not concerning, it’s essential to consider potential symptoms like fatigue or dizziness. High levels could arise from dehydration, smoking, or living at high altitudes. To normalize your hemoglobin, ensure adequate hydration, maintain a balanced diet, and avoid tobacco. Engaging in regular exercise can also help. However, it’s advisable to consult an endocrinologist for personalized guidance and evaluation, as they can determine underlying causes and recommend appropriate actions.

Doctor recommended me dexorange for anaemia how many times I should take it in a day and how
Female | 25
Dexorange treats anemia, a condition caused by a lack of red blood cells, leading to tiredness and weakness. It is often due to low iron levels. Take Dexorange once or twice daily after meals, as directed on the label. Regular use helps your body absorb iron and manage anemia effectively.

Sickle cell anemia report bare main janna hai
Female | 16
Sickle cell anemia is a health problem. People with it have red blood cells that are bent in a moon shape. The bent cells get stuck in tiny blood tubes. This causes much hurt and low energy. It also leads to getting sick easily. Sickle cell anemia happens because of a gene issue from parents. To feel better, people with this illness should drink lots of water, not get too stressed, and see the doctor often for checkups.

I had a blood transfusion due to which the body has become inflamed
Female | 21
Having inflammation after a blood transfusion is one possibility, as your body might reject the new blood. Some of the symptoms are swelling, redness, or warmth. The reaction to the allergy or the mild side effect could be a reason. It is vital to watch over your symptoms closely. The best things to do are drinking plenty of liquids and resting. Yet, if inflammation continues or gets worse, you might want to notify your healthcare provider, who can give you your own advice and treatment.

I have 16 pea sized lymph nodes I am 57kg my height is 5ft 10 I’ve had them for almost 2 years and they haven’t got bigger or changed I’ve had blood tests previously and they all came back fine. I do have 2 under my jaw that’s a bit bigger than a pea though. Is it a concern? I have no symptoms except bad anxiety. I am highly afraid of cancers
Male | 17
Your lymph nodes not changing size or growing for two years is good. When it comes to cancer we tend to worry a lot due to anxiety. They might remain slightly enlarged sometimes. It’s usually benign but it would be prudent to get the larger ones checked by your doctor. Additionally, work on calming down your nerves because that can also be of help.

My cbc result was WBC 3.73 RBC 4.57 NEU 1.78
Female | 58
Your WBC count is slightly low at 3.73; RBC is normal at 4.57. NEU is also lower at 1.78. Low WBC suggests weaker immunity, making infections more likely. Have nutritious meals, ample sleep, stay hydrated. If unwell, see a doctor for examination and guidance.

Such examples are anemia, infections, or nutritional deficiencies, which can be easily fixed by a better diet and correct vitamins. To get a more definite response to your tests and required actions, you must talk to your healthcare provider first. They can recommend a personalized approach and a program for you to take care of your health in the best way possible.

I've been sick for months , my white blood cell and t cells are abnormal but primary not doing anything about it
Male | 51
Your blood tests showed weird white cells and T cells. Those cells fight germs. So weird counts may mean your immune system isn't working right. Being tired, sick often, and losing weight for no reason - those could be signs too. Visit a hematologist to get proper treatment.

Female | 19
Seeing blood in your urine, whether it’s clear or can only be seen under a microscope, is called hematuria. This can happen due to various reasons like urinary tract infections, kidney problems, or even strenuous physical activity. It’s important to visit an urologist to determine the exact cause and get the right treatment.

posterior cervical lymphadenopathy is written on my file , i have lump on my neck , felt when pressed , i am on antibiotics from 5 days , still its there and not going away . what are chances that its cancerous ?
Female | 22
You lump your neck, and the term "posterior cervical lymphadenopathy" is in your file. It signifies the presence of a swollen lymph node. There can be many causes for this, and infections are the most common ones. But for our safety, we should explore every option including cancer. The doctor should do a thorough check-up because the lump doesn't go away even after antibiotics. They may recommend additional tests like a biopsy to identify the cause. Yet, remember, often it can still be because of non-cancerous reasons.

Hello doctor good morning Naku Sickle cell trait 69% undi nenu present medicines em use cheyatledu kani naku jaundice 2points undi idhi thaggutunda ?? Dinivalla nenu chala suffer avutunna And Naku spleen enlargement undi apudu apudu left side Pain vostundi undi spleen reduce avadha ?
స్త్రీ | 28
The sickle cell trait itself implies the fact that you have a gene that encodes it but not its full condition. Jaundice might result from other conditions but not from sickle cell trait. The pain on the left side where the spleen is may be a symptom of it being enlarged. See your orthodox doctor for safety reasons so you may be treated properly.

I am 46 years old . In annual health check up in urine protine is traced & pus cell count found 18-20 . In complete blood picture (CBP) ,Eosinophils count and Absolute Eosinophil count is zero . In Lipid Profile HDL Cholesterol result is 37 is it serious or needs to consult to doctor
Female | 46
Finding protein and pus cells in your urine could mean an infection or kidney problem. Zero Eosinophils? That might show you're not responding well to certain allergies. And low HDL cholesterol puts you at higher risk for heart disease. It's smart to talk to a doctor about these results. They can take a closer look and tell you what to do next.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a type of cancer affecting the blood and bone marrow. Symptoms can include fatigue, frequent infections, and easy bruising. The 10% chance refers to potential risks, which may include complications, but not necessarily immediate death. Many patients respond well to treatments like chemotherapy and targeted therapy, significantly improving survival rates. It’s essential for the boy to receive care from a specialized medical team, who can provide tailored support and options. Staying informed and connected with oncologist is crucial during this time.

It is essential to work with your doctor in order to fully investigate and then create a healthcare plan that is specifically developed for you in connection with the discovered condition.

Am 16 and I am severely underweight and really low iorn like it's 74.4 and my hemoglobin droped from 14 to 10 and too i feel dizzy many times
Female | 16
It sounds like you're experiencing symptoms due to low iron levels and decreased hemoglobin. This can lead to feelings of dizziness and fatigue, as your body isn’t getting enough oxygen. Underweight issues might also contribute to poor nutrition. To improve your situation, focus on a balanced diet rich in iron sources like leafy greens, beans, lean meats, and fortified cereals. Alongside dietary changes, consider foods high in vitamin C to enhance iron absorption. It’s essential to speak with a healthcare professional who can evaluate your condition and possibly recommend supplements or further tests for personalized care.

Female | 59
Your mom's high white blood cell count shows there could be an infection. After her hernia surgery, you'll want to tackle that. Doctors usually suggest a blood culture test to pinpoint the infection source. High WBC can bring fever, fatigue, and discomfort. Treating the infection should lower her WBC count. Make certain she finishes all her antibiotics as prescribed to help get that WBC in check before her procedure.
