Treatment and symptoms of ESR 12 mm/hr | Diet for normal ESR level 12 mm/hr
Normal ESR level of 12 can cause a number of symptoms.
An abnormal ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) level of 12 may suggest inflammation or underlying chronic conditions in the body. A person with an ESR level of 12 might experience nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, unexplained weight loss, or low-grade fever. ESR is a non-specific marker but is often used to track inflammation related to arthritis, autoimmune diseases, or infections. It's typically interpreted along with other tests to diagnose or monitor the progression of inflammatory diseases. You can choose from multiple treatments, but the critical first step is changing your diet.

What to do after ESR blood test?
If bleeding occurs after your ESR test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a ESR blood draw. If you feel pain following the ESR test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
