A selection of expert articles to help you understand Anemia better.
Bruises or hematomas occur on the body as a result of a trauma (bruising, impact) and usually do not cause concern. But what if the bruises appear for no apparent reason?
We all get tired from time to time. We often blame tiredness on the heat, work, or age. However, we sometimes forget that constant fatigue may be the underlying problem.
If you get cold hands often, even in warm weather, you should consult a doctor. The cause may be both the usual vegetative-vascular dystonia, and problems with the blood flow or blood vessels. Where should you start and what doctor should you visit?
Some of us assume that if we have a normal hemoglobin level, we are safe from anemia. In doing so, we may overlook alarming symptoms that indicate iron deficiency. In order to get reliable results, it is essential to control the level of ferritin.
When experiencing symptoms of anemia, most people think that they lack iron. They often take a test and are surprised that it is normal, or they start taking iron preparations without any tests and don’t get any results. This is because anemia can have other causes.
Iron deficiency anemia is often not an independent disease, but a sign of serious health problems. If tests show a low level of haemoglobin, it is necessary to understand the exact cause. To do this, you need to pay attention to the accompanying symptoms.
Many of us experience a lack of sleep, stress, and poor diet at some point or another in our lives. While these can all be symptoms of general fatigue, they can also indicate a lack of iron in the body. When it's time to get tested?
Anemia occurs when red blood cells decrease, which prevents the full supply of oxygen from reaching all organs and tissues of the body. At first, this leads to general malaise, but it can cause more serious problems. Anemia can be treated — it is important to take action and not miss the onset of the disease.
Some people discover they have low iron levels when they start looking for the reason behind constant fatigue and feeling unwell. Others find out during a routine check-up. Either way, they’re left wondering what caused it — and whether it could have been prevented.
