Should I Be Worried For Being Anemic?

My husband is 34 years old and 6'4 tall and weighs 220 pds. He is very strong man, works out regularly and owns his own contruction business. He went in two months ago for sinus issues and the Dr. wanted him to come back for blood work because he is at age where it shoudl be done. He went in and his dr told him he is anemic with a hemoglobin level of 13.6 and hemocrit at 40.2%. Should we be concerned?

No. You dont worry about that. Hemoglobin
Level 13.6is not consider as low.it is almost normal and no need of concern.
