Body aches may require additional testing, history, and physical to determine the cause. As you found out, a blood test is not enough to determine the cause of body soreness.

What is the histology of hypertension?

In hypertension, the histology typically shows thickening of the walls of small arteries and arterioles due to smooth muscle cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia. This results in narrowing of the vessel lumen and reduced compliance, contributing to increased systemic vascular resistance and elevated blood pressure. Additionally, chronic hypertension may lead to endothelial cell damage, inflammation, and fibrosis in the vessel walls.


What does it mean if your white blood cells and neutrophils are high?

If your white blood cell count is high, this shows an infection, usually bacterial. If your neutrophil count is also high, this shows an acute infection, whereas if your macrophage count were to be high, this would show a chronic infection. An acute infection or inflammation means that it has had a duration of usually less than 2 weeks. A chronic infection lasts longer than 2 weeks. The difference is that the neutrophils are the first responders to inflammation and infection, then come the macrophages. The neutrophils have a shorter lifespan and the macrophages can live for a long time fighting infection. This is how you get the higher count of neutrophils with an acute infection, and the higher macrophages with chronic infection.


ARE Human blood groups are an example of a trait that shows continuous variation.?

No, human blood groups are not an example of a trait that shows continuous variation. Instead, blood groups (such as A, B, AB, and O) are classified as discrete categories determined by specific alleles. Continuous variation typically refers to traits like height or skin color, which exhibit a range of phenotypes rather than distinct categories.


Does Thyroid blood tests shows HIV in the test results?

No, thyroid blood tests do not show HIV in the test results. HIV testing is a separate test that specifically looks for the presence of the HIV virus in the blood. Thyroid blood tests measure levels of thyroid hormones to assess thyroid function.


What is Proteus vulgaris on the Blood Hemolysis Test?

Proteus vulgaris is a bacterium that shows beta hemolysis on blood agar plates. In the Blood Hemolysis Test, this means that Proteus vulgaris will cause complete lysis of red blood cells, resulting in a clear zone around the bacterial growth on the agar plate.

What are normal results for a sigmoidoscopy?

A normal exam shows a smooth bowel wall with no evidence of inflammation, polyps or tumors.


What effect does inflammation have on blood vessels?

Inflammation can lead to the release of chemicals that cause blood vessels to dilate and become more permeable. This can result in increased blood flow to the affected area and the leakage of fluid and white blood cells into surrounding tissues, contributing to swelling and tissue damage. Chronic inflammation can also lead to the thickening and narrowing of blood vessels, increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

What characteristics does a normal thallium heart scan have?

A normal thallium heart scan typically shows even distribution of the radioactive tracer throughout the heart muscle, indicating adequate blood flow to all regions of the heart. There should be no areas of reduced blood flow or "cold spots" which could indicate potential blockages or areas of reduced heart muscle function. The scan should also show normal heart wall motion and function.


What does a high sedimentation rate indicate?

Erythrocytes sedimentation rate (ESR) Westergren method. An ESR of 100 shows that you have an elevated sedimentation rate and that you have a problem with inflammation. it does not however indicate what the cause of the inflammation is. The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, and for females is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly more elevated in the elderly and is much lower for children. A sedimentation rate is blood test that can detect and monitors inflammation in the body. It is a measurement of the red blood cells (erythrocytes) settling in a tube over a given period of time. this test is referred to as an ESR. Red blood cells settle in the bottom of the test tube given time leaving leaving the blood serum visible above. The sedimentation rate is simply how far the top of the RBC layer has fallen (in millimeters) in one hour. The sedimentation rate increases with more inflammation.

What characteristics does a normal transesophageal echocardiography have?

A normal transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) will typically show clear visualization of cardiac structures, including the chambers, valves, and major vessels of the heart. The images should demonstrate normal heart function, without evidence of structural abnormalities or significant abnormalities in blood flow. Additionally, the procedure should be well-tolerated by the patient with minimal complications.
