Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have had hand pain above my elbow for one year. The pain started six months after delivery. Blood tests and other check-ups have been done, but no issue was found. Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You need to get the correct tests done, apart from a complete blood count (CBC), which in your case is grossly normal and has microcytic red blood cells (RBC), suggesting iron deficiency. You must get erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and vitamin D levels checked as this helps to understand if this is to do anything with an inflammatory condition. Also, is the pain present in the morning or after a period of rest? How long does the pain remain? Please let me know about the reports for a complete answer.
