Should I take supplements for low Vit D, B12, and haemoglobin?
I have Vit D 38 and B12 302 and haemoglobin 10 (iron deficiency 35) Do I need to take supplements ?

General Physician
Answered on 9th Feb '25
Based on your levels, it appears that you may benefit from supplements. A Vitamin D level of 38 is on the lower side, while your Vitamin B12 is within a typical range. However, your hemoglobin is low, suggesting anemia likely due to iron deficiency. Symptoms can include fatigue, weakness, and pale skin. I recommend discussing iron and Vitamin D supplementation with your physician to determine the right dosage and duration.

is there any harm in using adfill injection instead of peg religrast injection?
Female | 45
Adfill injection differs from Peg Religrast. After cancer therapy, doctors prescribe Peg Religrast to boost white blood cells. However, Adfill has a distinct purpose unrelated to increasing blood cell count. Taking medicines incorrectly risks harming your health. Your doctor knows best which medications serve your needs. Listen carefully to medical advice about proper usage.

I am having swollen lymph nodes in my neck since two years I have done fnac and biopsy both comes with result reactive lyphadenopathy....is it Cancer????
Female | 23
Reactive lymphadenopathy means the lymph nodes are responding to something which is not necessarily cancer. This can be caused by infections such as colds. Skin conditions can also cause them. Your doctor might want to keep an eye on them for a while or do more tests to be sure. Changes are always best recorded and communicated with a healthcare provider.

I am 18yrs old......my gender is female....I have so many dizziness and I was test my haemoglobin and it's is 18.6 is this high or low
Female | 18
A hemoglobin level of 18.6 is already a high value. This may be what is behind your dizziness. In addition, high hemoglobin can also result in headaches and red skin. It might be dehydration, lung diseases, or heart problems. To decrease hemoglobin levels, drink more water, refrain from smoking, and work out regularly. Iron-rich foods such as broccoli and beans can also help.

Female | 24
Based on her symptoms—fever, vomiting, leg pain, and a low white blood cell count—she likely has an infection. This can cause significant discomfort. Antibiotics may help her immune system fight the infection. Make sure she stays hydrated and gets plenty of rest to recover faster.

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.

An Lymphocyte percentage of 16% might fall into the reference range depending further on several factors still. This value alone does not mean that one has an HIV infection as the person with HIV infection can differ in their lymphocytes percentages.

My platelet count is 5.5 lakh so it is normal or not
Male | 17
A platelet count of 5.5 lakh is normal. These tiny cells help blood clot properly. Low platelets mean bruising easily, bleeding too much, and cuts won't stop bleeding. High platelets might signal infection, inflammation, or medical issues. So, regular check-ups with your doctor monitor those platelet levels. Your number looks good now. But definitely double-check with a doctor.

Female | 26
If you had unprotected intimate relations in 2022 and your HIV test was negative in October 2023. You are not required to take another test as long as you haven't been risky since then. HIV symptoms sometimes show up late, so if you feel something out of the blue, like inexplicable weight loss or too many infections, then it's good to get tested again.

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.
