Suggest Treatment For Weakness And Hair Loss Due To Reduced Hemoglobin Levels
Sir, my haemoglobin level is about 8 g/dl. What should I do to cure my weakness, sluggishness and skin disorders that are mainly suspected due to reduced Hb levels. Anyhow, I am also suffering from high hairfall and hair damage. Is this because of Hb, too?
Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Yes low hemoglobin level can lead epithelial change and so skin and nail changes can develop. Low hemoglobin level can affect tissue oxygen supply so weakness and other symptoms can occur. You should correct your hemoglobin level with orofer like ferrous ascorbate tablet with orange juice. It's advisable to investigate with serum ferritin as well and revert back to me.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
