A high erochite sedimentation rate indicates that you have some sort of inflammation in your system. The higher the rate the worse the inflammation. Inflammation is what happens when you immune system is reacting to something in your body. The test does not tell you what the reason for the inflammation is. it is often used in the case of rheumatoid arthritis to check on the activity of the disease. It can however also be brought up by any infection.

ESR is the short form of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate. The rate of Red Blood Cells to Settle down if you keep blood in any standard glass tube. ESR is raised in many conditions like anemias ( low hemoglobin) and certain inflammatory conditions and infections. As such ESR is not diagnostic of any particular condition but when it is raised, it means there is definitely something wrong, not necessarily something serious.
Because of haemodilution,albumin is low and fibrinogen and globulin are high which improve stacking of red blood cell.
Iron deficiency can lower the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by reducing the production of acute phase proteins involved in inflammation, leading to decreased aggregation and settling of red blood cells in the test tube. This can result in a falsely low ESR reading and may mask the presence of underlying inflammatory conditions.

Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) measures the body's degree of inflammation and high ESR level in blood can be controlled using ayurvedic treatment.
what is precautions for high esr in blood counting
Segmenters are also referred to as neutrophils. The reason why segmenters in blood are low could be due to a viral infection.

HOW AM I SUPOSSED TO KNOW!?!? ESR is not affected by angina pectoris because ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) measures the ability of red blood cells to settle over the course of one hour. ESR is affected by diseases and is elevated when diseased by is present (such as when there is inflammation or tissue damage). In angina pectoris, it is not the blood that is damaged, it is the blood VESSELS as anginal pectoris is caused by forms of atherosclerosis which inhibit blood flow. Therefore, the ESR test is pointless in cases of angina pectoris because it will only show that they blood is healthy and will not indicate a condition of disease in the blood vessels. Hope this helps!!
ESR measures the amount of inflammation in the blood RA is an inflammatory disease thus in the case of RA sufferers the ESR is usually higher when the disease is active.
yes ESR TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS INFLAMMATION
