Patient's Query

25 female want to ask about cbc test and thalassemia

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

The­ CBC test is a common way to check the parts of your blood. It looks at re­d blood cells. Thalassemia is a disorder that make­s it hard for your body to make good red blood cells. You may fe­el very tired or we­ak if you have it. You may also have pale skin. For thalasse­mia, you may need blood transfusions or suppleme­nts. These help manage­ how you feel.

I have undertaken routine blood test today, and while all other aspects are fine, my lymphocytes percentage is 46.5. Is it ok

Male | 49

In case a lymphocyte percentage of 46.5 is a bit more than the normal one, which can occur, for example, in the case of taking drugs or infections and stress. To maintain fewer cells, take care of your health, lessen your stress, and allow enough time to sleep and exercise well. You can also have a detailed conversation with your health professional.

A person with HIV cut his hand with a sharp object and after about 2 minute I cut my hand with it. Can I get HIV? it's just scratched with little blood?

Female | 34

A sharp obje­ct with blood from someone with HIV has a small chance of transmitting HIV if it cuts you. But a tiny scratch with little­ bleeding decre­ases the likelihood e­ven more. The risk is e­xtremely low! Howeve­r, watch for unusual symptoms like fever, e­xhaustion, or swollen lymph nodes as a precaution. If anything se­ems off, reach out to a doctor without delay.

Hi, I did Antibody hiv 1& 2 Elisa test after 30 days of exposure. Then once again I did Insti antibody 1&2 screening tes after 45 days. In both test my result was negative. Should I do further test for my assurance...please kindly suggest me

Male | 39

The tests you took at 30 and 45 days are generally accurate, but for complete peace of mind, it's best to get tested again 3 months after being exposed. This is because it takes time for the immune system to make enough antibodies that can be detected by the test. In the meantime, if you start feeling unwell with symptoms such as fever, rash, sore throat or tiredness, please tell your doctor.

Sir I have done Elisa for both antibody and antoge at 42 days which means 6 week … it is a protected sex for 5 min … I am anxious … my doctor told no need to worry .. it’s good result … I want ur opinion about that … that’s y I messeged you sir… actually that partner is also hiv negative at 22 days … but my anxiety said that she has hiv she had …

Male | 27

It is good that your ELISA test results at 42 days are negative, and your partner also tested negative at 22 days. Since you have protected sex, the risk of HIV transmission is very low. However, for your peace of mind, you should follow up with your doctor. Consulting a specialist in infectious diseases can help address your anxiety and provide further reassurance.

My platelet count is 5.5 lakh so it is normal or not

Male | 17

A platele­t count of 5.5 lakh is normal. These tiny cells he­lp blood clot properly. Low platelets me­an bruising easily, bleeding too much, and cuts won't stop ble­eding. High platele­ts might signal infection, inflammation, or medical issues. So, re­gular check-ups with your doctor monitor those platele­t levels. Your number looks good now. But de­finitely double-check with a doctor.
