I am 20F. Since May, I started a new job in May (retail part time as a student). I've been having nosebleeds since then. During summer it was worse when i was working many many hrs, where it happened alongside dizziness and headaches. Its recently happening again on and off since May- sometimes due to stress and dehydration , dust, allergies and the flu (dont know exact cause). It always come from one nostril.

Female | 20

Noseblee­ds happen, especially with stre­ss, lack of fluids, or breathing in dust and allergens. One­ nostril bleeding is usually no biggie. Try drinking more­ water, avoiding dusty spaces, and using a humidifier. But if it won't quit, be­st to have a doctor check it.

I have WBC 4.53 out of 5-10 normal range. My Neutrophils NEU % 43.3 with normal range 50-62 and lymphoctes lym% 49.2 with normal range 25-40. What does this mean? I used 2 weeks antibiotics for my UTI but this was 3 months ago

Female | 24

Your most recent blood test results show that your leukocyte count and various kinds of cells are slightly outside the range of normal. This might suggest that your body is still in the process of recovering from the urinary tract infection you had three months ago. The antibiotics you have been taking could influence these numbers, too. Ensure you drink enough water, consume a healthy diet, and observe any new symptoms that may arise.

I have test creatine Its having less than 0.4 please suggest me anything required

Female | Srilekha

It's good that creatinine levels are below 0.4. Creatinine is a waste product that your kidneys filter out of your blood. If it's too high, it can mean your kidneys aren't working well. Low creatinine levels can happen if someone has less muscle mass or is malnourished. Make sure you have a balanced diet and avoid a diet high in protein, also, be careful so as not to get dehydrated.

Hello, Doctor. I hope you're doing well. I recently had the opportunity to review my aunt's blood test results, and I was concerned to see that her neutrophil count is extremely high. Could you please explain what this might mean? Is it possible that she has an infection or a chronic disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease? Alternatively, could it be indicative of a more serious condition like cancer? Or perhaps it's related to a side effect of some medication she's taking? I would greatly appreciate your insight into this matter.

Female | 45

A high neutrophil count can indicate inflammation or infection in the body and may be linked to conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. Certain medications can also cause an increase. If your aunt has symptoms like fever, fatigue, or pain, it's important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I done tested hiv duo combo on 30th day it's negative with value 0.13. Then I test hiv 1&2 Elisa (Antibody only) on 45th day it's also negative with value of 0.19. Am is safe? Is 45th day 3rd gen Elisa test is reliable?

Male | 21

According to your test results, it is very encouraging that both the HIV combo and Elisa tests were negative. The 3rd-generation Elisa test is reliable and fairly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies on the 45th day. Don't forget HIV symptoms can be different; however, the most common ones are flu-like symptoms, rash, and fatigue.

You might have anemia, in which you don't have enough good red cells in your blood. The lack of red blood cells in your body can lead to the following symptoms fatigue, weight loss, and weakness. Anemia might be due to low iron intake in your diet, or there might be underlying diseases. So, to fix your case, you should begin to eat food that is rich in iron, you may also take supplements, or you may have some medical consultations for a check-up.

I am 16 years old I am suffering from sickle cell I currently have pain all over my body please help me

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.

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.

Female | 33

High ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and CRP levels can indicate inflammation in your body. Common causes include infections, autoimmune diseases like lupus, and certain cancers. It’s important to work with a doctor to find the right solution and address the root cause. Treatment will depend on the underlying condition and may involve medications, lifestyle changes, or further testing.

You got a result on your urine protein test, and your CRP level is 124, which might indicate inflammation or infection. Feeling tired, achy, or swollen? These could be symptoms of an infection or an underlying condition. Don't worry; you can help by drinking plenty of water, eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and consulting your doctor for advice.

My nephew is 4 months old. 2 months ago he went I'll . we had to take him blood transfusion immediately because the HB was dropped to 4 only . now the things happen again at the age of 4 months . we had to take him again blood transfusion. we did his Electrophoresis Report. here are the results HbA 55% HbA2 2.0% HbF 43% we want to know if there's any thelesmia or not or if HbA can be increase with age

Male | 4 months

An elevated level of HbF was what was observed and this is a common thing found in babies. Such results would indicate that a defect might be present in the body like beta-thalassemia at the beginning. However, these could also be seen in healthy infants. Increasing HbA levels naturally may follow his growing up. The main symptoms of anemia can cause fatigue or weakness, but it’s very important to take your child to a doctor and test for other reasons.

I get attacks of thirst (dry mouth included), dizzy and unwell followed by feeling tired and a headache later in the day. This happens weekly (week n half most) used to be once a month or so. Previous bloods showed low folic, elevated bilirubin and b12 but no proper answers or directions.

Male | 38

You may be dehydrated, which can cause a dry mouth, dizziness, and tiredness. Low folic acid and high bilirubin levels might also be factors. Try drinking more water and eating leafy greens and citrus fruits for folic acid. If symptoms persist, see a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

According to the symptoms, there may be an underlying serious illness. You should seek medical attention immediately for a correct diagnosis and treatment plan. They can mean different things such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. Do'nt wait any longer before visiting a doctor because these signs need urgent care.

I am a 15 year old female who has been feeling heavy, achy legs with inactivity for 3 weeks since I arrived back at school. I weigh 115 pounds and have had sensitivity to the cold and purplish blotches that show up on my legs when exposed to extreme temperatures since I was young.

Female | 15

You might have some symptoms of a condition known as Raynaud's phenomenon. This can cause your legs to feel heavy and achy, especially in the cold. The purplish blotches you see when it's cold are also common with Raynaud's. The blood vessels in your body become too sensitive to cold or stress and this is how the condition occurs. It is advisable to y8 wear warm clothes to manage these symptoms.

Dear Doctor, Due to my father's high blood viscosity, suspicion of polycythemia arises, necessitating blood draws every 3 weeks to maintain appropriate levels. At 69 years old, he experiences symptoms such as skin itching, swelling, head numbness, and fatigue. Currently, his JAK2 V617F mutation showed 0.8 then 1.2%, with JAK2 exon 12 negative and EPO at 13.4. Abdominal CT and chest X-ray are normal. After a few months of phlebotomy, his levels normalized. Now, we await the bone marrow biopsy results, which do not confirm Polycythemia Vera: "Microscopic description: The bone marrow biopsy sample shows somewhat hypocellular hematopoietic parenchyma relative to age, which is terminally mature. Myeloid ratio is 2:1 with dominance of late precursors; no blast cells are noted. The number of megakaryocytes is normal with no clustering. There is no interstitial fibrosis or lymphoid infiltrate. Diagnosis: Mature, hypocellular hematopoietic parenchyma without myeloproliferative features. Cytogenetic analysis confirmed male karyotype; no clonal chromosomal abnormalities detected. Indication for examination D7510 Secondary polycythemia Note Submicroscopic rearrangements, small structural chromosomal aberrations, DNA-level differences cannot be ruled out with the method used." I am quite confused as JAK2 positivity typically suggests PV, yet the biopsy suggests otherwise, possibly indicating secondary polycythemia. Could you please clarify based on this information what you personally think is more likely, Polycythemia Vera or another secondary cause? Thank you very much for your help.

Male | 67

Your father's symptoms and test results do suggest some complexity. The presence of JAK2 mutation often points towards Polycythemia Vera (PV), but the bone marrow biopsy does not show typical myeloproliferative features, suggesting it might be secondary polycythemia instead. Consult a hematologist, specializing in blood disorders, and can provide a more accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

Female | 37

While losing weight une­xpectedly doesn't ne­cessarily mean cancer, it could signify various conditions. Don't worry imme­diately. Other symptoms might occur, such as constant e­xhaustion, appetite fluctuations, or discomfort. Common reasons include­ stress, thyroid problems, or diabete­s. However, to be ce­rtain, seeking professional me­dical evaluation is essential.
