Answered on 11th June '24
Cigarette smoking tends to impact the results of CBC blood tests but they don’t directly reveal it. By increasing your white blood cell count, smoking may indicate signs of inflammation or an infection to a physician. Tell truthfully about your smoking habits when asked by healthcare practitioners so that they can provide appropriate treatment for you.

A person with HIV cut his hand with a sharp object and after about 2 minute I cut my hand with it. Can I get HIV? it's just scratched with little blood?
Female | 34
A sharp object with blood from someone with HIV has a small chance of transmitting HIV if it cuts you. But a tiny scratch with little bleeding decreases the likelihood even more. The risk is extremely low! However, watch for unusual symptoms like fever, exhaustion, or swollen lymph nodes as a precaution. If anything seems off, reach out to a doctor without delay.

Female | 16
Sickle cell is a condition where your red blood cells are of the wrong shape that can easily block the blood flow of the blood and thus become painful. This phenomenon occurs in every part of the body. It can lead to fatigue as well. To heal, you are recommended to take warm baths, drink water, and rest. You should also talk to your doctor for more help.

We have done routine test and in that asylum serum is increased at 142. Is it something to worry about
Male | 44
Albumin serum levels tell if your body is balanced. Increased albumin can occur from dehydration, high-protein intake, or medications. You likely won't notice changes. Drink more water and eat balanced meals to help. Discuss concerns with your healthcare provider if needed.

RBC level 5.10 wht to do dr please answer
Female | 32
Red blood cells are important. Too many is not good. A level of 5.10 is a bit high. That can happen for different reasons. Maybe you didn't drink enough water. Or maybe you smoke. Some medical issues like polycythemia can also cause it. You might feel tired, dizzy, or get headaches. To fix it, drink lots of water. Don't smoke. Follow your doctor's advice.

Low hemoglobin A2 , weakness
Female | 30
Low hemoglobin A2 causes weakness and fatigue. Your body lacks iron. Insufficient iron happens when the diet lacks iron-rich foods like beans, spinach, red meat. Boost hemoglobin A2 by discussing iron supplements or diet changes with a doctor.

I am feeling weakness from last 1-2 month I also faced some UTI issue, mild fever body pain ,and suffering from anemia, also faced the problem of hair loss and weight loss , fatigue...what is my health issues and I am a working woman,so what advice you suggest for me?
Female | 28
Looking at the symptoms you've given, you are likely going through a urinary tract infection (UTI) and anemia. If you have a UTI, you may experience mild fever and body pain. Anemia can cause muscle weakness, hair loss, weight loss, and fatigue. To resolve these problems, you should drink plenty of water, eat iron-rich foods like spinach and beans, and rest enough. Talk to a urologist about the correct diagnosis and treatment.

I wanna check about my blood taste report as I recently got from a lab
Male | 30
The important reason for the iron deficiency in your blood is anemia, which manifests as fatigue, pale skin, and weakness. Iron-rich diet foods such as spinach, beans, or fortified cereals can help. Some foods like citrus fruits and bell pepper are very good sources of vitamin C. You can also consult a hematologist for proper guidance.

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.

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.

It's a relief to know that the CT scan of your chest shows no remarkable risk. Blood clots can root from different causes like immobility, injury, or some illnesses.

I suggest that you strictly follow the instructions of your doctor, do the exercises recommended to you in your physical therapy, and you may also apply proper hydration.

Stomach pain can be the result of medication cavitation in the digestive system. It is crucial to reach out to the medical team immediately for help with these symptoms. They may prescribe medicines to decrease the fever or stomach pain. Drinking plenty of water and sleeping will also help.

I have done health checkup for blood test ..need to know if everything is normal ..I feel fatigue sometimes
Male | 42
Looking tired sometimes can have so many different explanations. The results of your blood screening can show some hints. In case your iron level turns out to be low, your body will be susceptible to fatigue. Having a diet rich in spinach and beans can help increase your iron level. Deficiency of sleep can be a reason for tiredness, too. Regularize the habit of going to bed early and having quality sleep. If the blood test results show any problems, your doctor can find you the appropriate remedy.

I would like to have my blood test result be explained to me. Thank you
Female | 60
One of the crucial parts of your well-being is your capability to interpret blood analyses. Usually, these outcomes are the source of several pieces of information, among them vitamin amounts, the equilibrium of hormones, as well as signs of inflammation and infection. Disorders like chronic discomfort, tiredness, and weakness can be regarded as typical consequences of a certain hormonal imbalance. Discrepancies, on the other hand, might come from a wide range of reasons including poor nutrient intake through cardiology to some internal blockage. It’s the duty of the doctor to enumerate the results which patients require to be aware of and to advise them according to their particular situation.
