The typical symptoms of iron defusion consist of fatigue, weakness, and trouble gaining weight. The most prevalent cause of low iron is that you don't get enough of it in your diet. Iron-rich foods such as red meat, beans, and green leaves can do a good help. Besides consuming iron supplements, which should be prescribed by a doctor, one will also be able to improve one's iron levels. Don't forget to see your doctor to get more directions.

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.

Medicine for CRP(q) Level 26
My CRP(q) is 26 what medicine should i use
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 7th Sept '24
If your CRP level shows 26, it's slightly above normal. That indicates your body has inflammation. Inflammation comes from infections, injuries, or chronic conditions. To treat it, you need to address the underlying cause. Your doctor may suggest anti-inflammatory drugs or antibiotics, depending on what's causing inflammation.

I. T. P. Prblm in one year
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 6th Sept '24
I.T.P. stands for Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. This can occur when your immune system mistakenly attacks the blood platelets your body needs to stop the bleeding. Symptoms include easy bruising, tiny red dots on the skin, and gum bleeding. Treatment may include medications or, in more severe cases, procedures to increase the number of platelets. Don't forget to visit a hematologist for the right treatment.

Understanding CRP Blood Test Results
CRP (C Reactive Protein) Quantitative, Serum-8.6 HsCRP High Sensitivity CRP -7.88 This is my report please explain me what is this
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 5th Sept '24
The tests show you have a bit higher CRP level, meaning some inflammation in your body. Infections, chronic issues, or stress can cause it. The high sensitivity CRP test detects lower inflammation levels better. It's important to find the cause with your doctor and make a plan. Rest well, eat healthy foods, and try to reduce stress to help lower inflammation.

Inconsistent Fever with Throat Infection: Blood Abnormalities
Muje fever he kabhi aata he kabhi thik ho jata he kabhi kabar bahot thand chadh jati he throat me bhi infection he mcv count is decreased and mchc count is increased and tlc is increased
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 5th Sept '24
A fever that comes and goes could be an infection. The chills, sore throat, and blood test results support this too. Your MCV was low, MCHC high, and TLC raised - signs something's not right. Don't worry though, infections are common and treatable. But you must rest up, drink lots of liquids, and eat nutritious meals. See a doctor soon as antibiotics might be needed to help you heal faster.

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 5th Sept '24
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.

Severe Nosebleed Followed by Discomfort
Yesterday my nose is blood bleeding and today is feeling discomfort.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 5th Sept '24
Your nosebleed yesterday likely irritated. Dry air and nose picking often trigger nosebleeds. The discomfort today might stem from that irritation. Using a humidifier adds moisture, which can help. Avoid picking your nose too. If issues persist, consult a doctor.

Are My MPV Levels Low?
My patlet -154000 MPV -14.2 Is it ok
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 5th Sept '24
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.

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.

Answered on 5th Sept '24
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.

Monitoring your lactate dehydrogenase levels shows care for health. An elevated LDH value, like 3818, signals potential issues. This might involve muscles, liver, or heart. Tiredness, muscle aches, breathing difficulties - these could arise. The wise step is to consult a doctor. They'll conduct further assessments, pinpointing the root cause.

Hi! I’m 28 years old woman. After I lost a pregnancy at 6 weeks, last year in December, we decided to try again. Now, I’m pregnant again in 3 weeks and my doctor suggested a trombophilia test. The results came few minutes ago. Can you help with it? Thanks in advance! Mutation Factor 2 (G20210a, protrombina)->negative/negative Mutation Factor V Leiden (G1691A)->negative/negative Mutation MTHFR(C677T)->negative/negative Mutation MTHFR(A1298c)-> positive Homozigote/negative Detection gene PAI-1 (4g/5g) ->PAI-1 heterozigote 4g/5g / PAI-1 homozigote 5g/5g Mutation factor XIII -> positive heterozigote/negative
Dr. Babita Goel

Answered on 4th Sept '24
Factor 2 and Factor V Leiden tests were negative - that's good news. However, an MTHFR mutation was detected. This means your body may struggle to break down certain B vitamins. Additionally, the PAI-1 gene varies slightly, indicating potential differences in blood clotting.

Why am I losing weight, feeling dizzy, and fatigued?
I am loosing weight continuously and getting slim like anaemia patients skin is so dull and sagging and I feel dizzy sometimes, get tired easily can't sit longer because my blood cells stops working so I have to move every moment
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 4th Sept '24
Anemia results from a deficient number of healthy red blood cells in the bloodstream. Low red blood cells mean asthma, dizziness, and quick weight loss. Your skin can also become pale and saggy. More spreadsheets with foods high in iron such as spinach and beans are advisable. Your doctor can also give you iron pills to increase the number of red blood cells.

You feel worried about having HIV even with a negative test. Our bodies sometimes show symptoms like HIV without actually having it.
