Males: 0-9 mm/h Females: 0-15 mm/h
afternormal why esr shootup again
A normal value does not rule out disease. Normal values for the Westergren method are: Men 0 mm/hour-15 mm/hour; women 0 mm/hour-20 mm/hour; and children 0 mm/hour-10 mm/hour.
A normal esr reading is 1 to 12. A result of 77 means there is inflammation in the body.
what is precautions for high esr in blood counting
No an ESR of 48 is high and indicates that there is some sort of inflammation in your body. 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.

Black,The tubes are specially used for determination of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by the Westergren's Method. The mixing ratio is 1 part citrate solution to 4 parts blood. ESR measurements refer to the Westergren method.
That depends on your age and sexsee below for more details on this.Note: mm/hr. = millimeters per hour.(sourced from wikipedia)Westergren's original normal values (men 3mm and women 7mm)[5] made no allowance for a person's age and in 1967 it was confirmed that ESR values tend to rise with age and to be generally higher in women.[6] Values are increased in states of anemia,[7] and in black populations.[8]AdultsThe widely used[9] rule for calculating normal maximum ESR values in adults (98% confidence limit) is given by a formula devised in 1983:{\rm ESR}\ (mm/hr) \le \frac {{\rm Age}\ ({\it in\ years}) + 10\ ({\it if\ female})}{2}ESR reference ranges from a large 1996 study with weaker confidence limits:(ESR 95% limits) Age (years)Men-----20 years old 10, 55 years old 14, 90 yearolds 19.Women-20 years old 15, 55 years old 21, 90 yearolds 23.ChildrenNormal values of ESR have been quoted as 1[12] to 2[13] mm/hr at birth, rising to 4 mm/hr 8 days after delivery,[13] and then to 17 mm/hr by day 14.Typical normal ranges quoted are:Newborn: 0 to 2 mm/hrNeonatal to puberty: 3 to 13 mm/hr, but other laboratories place an upper limit of 20. sourced from wikipedia
in tb esr increase very high than the normal range(>50mm/1st hr.) it can increase .100mm in 1st. hr.
I have high esr in my blood. 70 mm.i need normal esr.please can you give me best treatment.
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.
It would cause the ESR to go up
