Understanding your blood report can be challenging. Various factors such as diet, hydration, stress, or underlying health conditions can affect the results. Common symptoms linked to abnormal values include fatigue, weakness, or unusual bruising. To gain clarity, consider focusing on maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and managing stress. However, it’s essential to discuss your specific results with a physician who can provide personalized insights. They can help interpret the report accurately and guide you on any necessary steps.

I am a 7 month old baby's breastfeeding mother. I had a c section delivery but even after 7 months my body weakness is not getting better. Sometime this weakness is fine and sometimes I feel very weak. Now since last 2 3 days I am feeling dizzy, having constipation, acidity and shortness of breath and my wrist and feet are also trembling sometimes. I thought this is anemic symptoms.
Female | 25
I think perhaps you’re showing signs of a lack of iron, which often occurs after having a baby. You might feel weak, lightheaded, out of breath or have trembling hands and feet. You could also get constipated, have heartburn or feel low. Eating red meat, spinach and lentils can help because they are high in this mineral. You might also need to take an iron supplement. But talk to your doctor to make sure that’s what it is and work out a plan for getting better.

Is it possible that a person have Alpha thalassemia major and still not taking any blood transfusion in entire life and now 21 yo.....or the person have only minor one
Female | 21
Alpha thalassemia major can be present in a patient who does not require blood transfusions. This form of the disorder can result in severe anemia, although it affects people differently. Some individuals may not need a transfusion at all. Signs and symptoms of alpha thalassemia may include fatigue, weakness, or paleness of skin. Treatment may consist of symptom management such as taking supplements or drugs that stimulate the production of more red blood cells within the body. Please consult a doctor for individualized advice.

I have undertaken routine blood test today, and while all other aspects are fine, my lymphocytes percentage is 46.5. Is it ok
Male | 49
In case a lymphocyte percentage of 46.5 is a bit more than the normal one, which can occur, for example, in the case of taking drugs or infections and stress. To maintain fewer cells, take care of your health, lessen your stress, and allow enough time to sleep and exercise well. You can also have a detailed conversation with your health professional.

i am a 53 years male person, for last one month i feel swelling in my nech ,can i infected with cancer
Male | 53
A swelling in your neck could come from different causes - not cancer alone. Infections or other issues might make it happen. Cancer wouldn't be the only reason for neck swelling. Along with a lump, fever, cough, and weight loss would occur if it were cancer. It's wise to let a doctor examine you thoroughly and pinpoint the trigger behind the swelling.

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.

(1)Can u suggest me better diet plan in terms of increasing my muscle density. (2) Can i take whey protein powder as form of daily protein intake without doing gym ?
Male | 22
To do this, eat foods such as chicken, fish, eggs, and beans for protein. Also, have a lot of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains for your health in general. It is alright to take whey protein powder as a supplement, but it would be most effective if used with regular exercises that build muscles. Always keep in mind that working out is essential for muscle development!

I am 43 year old, my spleen has enlarged and since last 1 month I have been feeling constipated and having symptoms of ibs, and bone marrow test increases in plasma cell 08%
Female | 43
The bone marrow test shows that there are more plasma cells than usual. Plasmacytoma and promyelocytic tumors. Bloating spleen, constipation, and high plasma cells spring from the conditions of infection or bone marrow issues. Treatment engaged in depends on the cause, hence it is very important that a doctor be able to correctly diagnose and take care of ailments.

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.

I have fever and body pain before 4 day and yesterday I got blood test result WBC 2900 And neutrophils 71% I want know which type I have fever and which type medicine should be taken
Male | 24
You probably have bacteria making you sick. The blood tests found your white blood cells are low. However, your neutrophils, which fight infection, are high. In short, you have an infection. You need antibiotics from the doctor. Rest up. Drink fluids. Take medicine exactly as told. Listen to the doctor's instructions carefully.

You might have a sickle cell crisis happening. Sickle-shaped blood cells can clog vessels, blocking oxygen. Headaches, stomach pains, and vomiting signal this crisis. If vomit's green or yellow, it's bile from your stomach. Head to the hospital for treatment.

I am 40 years old female and here is my blood test report 1. Haematology Report: Haemoglobin (Hb): 9.1 gm/dl (Low) → Indicates anemia (normal range: 12.0 - 15.5 gm/dl). Total WBC Count: 7600 /cmm (Normal) → No signs of infection (normal range: 4000 - 11000 /cmm). Differential Count: All within normal limits. Packed Cell Volume (PCV): 31.3% (Low) → Correlates with anemia (normal range: 40 - 54%). RBC Count: 3.65 million/cmm (Low) → Suggests iron deficiency or chronic disease anemia (normal range: 4.5 - 6.5 mill/cmm). MCV (85.75 fL), MCH (24.9 pg/dl), MCHC (29.1 gm/dl): Slightly low, supporting anemia diagnosis. Platelet Count: 468 × 10³/μl (High) → Could be a reactive response to anemia (normal range: 150 - 450 × 10³/μl). 2. Widal Test (Serology Report): S. Typhi O: 1:80 (Borderline Positive) S. Typhi H: 1:80 (Borderline Positive) S. Paratyphi A & B: No agglutination (Negative)
Female | 40
Your hemoglobin and red blood cell levels indicate anemia, which can cause fatigue, weakness, and other symptoms. This might result from iron deficiency or chronic conditions. The elevated platelet count could be a reaction to the anemia. The Widal test shows borderline results for typhoid, suggesting further investigation may be necessary. I recommend consulting your physician for a thorough assessment and potential treatments, including dietary changes and supplements, to address the anemia. They will guide you in developing a comprehensive plan for your health.

Male | 10
Based on the CBC report for your son, it reads that his red blood cell count is elevated. Sometimes, this leads to headaches. The other test results yield normal values, which is a positive thing! In my opinion, a doctor's consultation is necessary to delve more into the issue of an elevated RBC count and the occasional headaches, ensuring that the child receives proper treatment.

I am having red mucus in colour, please consult a doctor
Female | 21
Red mucus is often a sign of bleeding in certain areas of your body, such as the nose, throat, or stomach. If it’s coming from your mouth, it could be related to a lung issue. This might be caused by an infection, irritation, or a more serious condition like pneumonia. It's important to see a doctor for an evaluation. They may run tests such as blood work, X-rays, or a bronchoscopy to identify the cause. Treatment for the bleeding will depend on its source, so it's best to get checked as soon as possible.

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.

My patlet -154000 MPV -14.2 Is it ok
Male | 39
A platelet count below 150,000 is considered low. Platelets help the blood clot properly. Low levels can cause bruising easily, bleeding, or tiny red spots called petechiae. An MPV of 14.2 is slightly below normal too. This could happen due to infections, medications, or medical issues. It's crucial to talk to your doctor about these results. They'll check further and recommend the right treatment.

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.
