Frequently Asked Questions
An ESR blood test is done to detect infection and the progression of the disease.
In the case of a minor infection or fever, the doctor may ask for an ESR Test.
The ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test is a measure of the rate at which red blood cells settle in a vertical tube over a specific time period. It is a non-specific indicator of inflammation in the body. The ESR test does not provide a specific diagnosis but helps to detect the presence and intensity of inflammation. It is commonly used as a screening tool to identify underlying inflammatory conditions, infections, or autoimmune disorders. The ESR test can also be used to monitor the progress or response to treatment of certain diseases.
Raised ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) can be caused by inflammation, infections, tissue damage, pregnancy, and aging.
A high ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) is generally considered a marker of inflammation in the body. While it is an indicator that something is happening in the body, it does not provide specific information about the underlying cause. Therefore, a high ESR is not necessarily good or bad on its own. It indicates the need for further investigation to determine the underlying cause of inflammation. A healthcare professional can interpret the ESR result in the context of the individual's symptoms, medical history, and other diagnostic tests to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the situation.
The ESR test is a relatively risk-free procedure that doesn’t involve any significant complications.
There is no special preparation or requirements for the test. It is a non-fasting test and you can take the test whenever it is convenient for you. However, it is crucial to remember that ESR levels might change due to certain drugs, leading to erroneous findings. Medications such as steroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) might cause falsely low ESR readings. Before undergoing the test, you should visit your doctor and inform him of any drugs you are taking.
