What causes high ESR and low Globulin?
High ESR and low Globulin can be caused by many reasons.
If your ESR is in between 0.1 mm/hr and 14 mm/hr and your Globulin is in between 2 g/dL and 4.1 g/dL then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for ESR and Globulin respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.
Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease ESR levels include:
- Rheumatic fever
- Vascular disease
- Autoimmune diseases
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Heart disease
