hello doctor,i am worried about ESR.it is 60.What should i do on that?
Hi
ESR by itself is a very non specific investigation
If she has any associated symptoms keep a watch, specifically ass you mentioned temperature
Keep a record of temperature at regular intervas same time of day atleast three to four times a day and see for the actual rise
If there are persistent peaks you should see a physician
Hope this helps
