You've been feeling exhausted, lightheaded, and nauseous after childbirth. These could be signs of anemia, which means your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells. Even though you are on iron and calcium tablets, they may not be enough. It's important to have a blood test to see if you need a different type of iron or if something else is causing your symptoms.

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.

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.

According to the blood test results you provided, the total white blood cell (TLC) count is above the norm, which may be indicative of an infection or inflammation in the body. High TLC may come with symptoms like fever, fatigue, and coolness of the body. To deal with this problem, it is necessary to find the primary cause of the increased TLC level by conducting more tests and getting a doctor's opinion for suitable treatment.

You may be experiencing a condition known as Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura, or ITP. This disease can lower your platelet, which is necessary for the coagulation process. The symptoms are easy bruising, bleeding of the gums, and pale skin. Important: See a hematologist for the proper diagnosis. Treatments include drugs or platelet transfusions.

Your WBC count is slightly low at 3.73; RBC is normal at 4.57. NEU is also lower at 1.78. Low WBC sugge­sts weaker immunity, making infections more­ likely. Have nutritious meals, ample­ sleep, stay hydrated. If unwe­ll, see a doctor for examination and guidance­.

Answered on 3rd Aug '24

A rapid drop in bhCG levels, from 389 to 280 in just two days, can be concerning. It might indicate cramping, bleeding, or even a miscarriage. However, don't panic yet—additional tests are needed. Keep your doctor informed about any new symptoms, and they will guide you on the appropriate monitoring and next steps.

Can Scratched Hand Transmit HIV Quickly?

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?

Answered on 2nd Aug '24

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.

Your blood test results have come back as abnormal. Generally, high levels of lym p-lc, MCV, PDW, mpv, and rdw-cv, in the case of low MHC and platelet count, can indicate various conditions. Your symptoms of anxiety, night fever, leg pain, and weight loss are bothersome. These abnormal results and symptoms may be linked to health issues such as anemia, infections, or inflammatory conditions. A doctor's follow-up is necessary for detailed diagnosis and treatment of the problem.

Concerned about Cough, Cold & Blood in Sputum

I have normal cold and cough and sputum with blood from nose and mouth both

1 Answer
Dr. Babita Goel

Dr. Babita Goel

General Physician

Answered on 26th July '24

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.
