ERYTHROCYTES SEDIMENTATION RATE (ESR)

What is an ESR Test and Why is it Done?

An ESR test (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) is a simple blood test that helps detect inflammation in the body. Instead of pointing to one specific disease, this test gives a general idea if there is some inflammation or infection going on. A ESR test in CHITTORGARH is often advised when symptoms are unclear but doctor suspects something inflammatory.

ESR itself doesn’t tell the exact cause, but it helps doctors decide if further tests are needed or not. It is commonly used along with other blood tests for better understanding.

ESR Test Parameters

The ESR test mainly checks one value.

• Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR): This measures how fast red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube in one hour. A faster settling rate usually means inflammation in the body. Higher ESR levels can be seen in infections, autoimmune conditions, or chronic diseases.

• Long-lasting fever
• Body pain or joint pain
• Unexplained fatigue
• Swelling or stiffness in joints

Sometimes ESR is advised even when symptoms are mild.
