Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
ESR is erythrocyte sedimentation rate. It is marker of inflammation and infection.
So high ESR suggests that you are having infection or inflammation somewhere in your body.
And this can cause poor results in hair transplant.
So better to consult infection specialist doctor to find out cause for high ESR.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
