Suggest Remedy For Severe Anaemia

I m a 37 yr old mother of 6. I am terribly anemic, doctor says I m in a danger zone. I have a lot of phlegm in the back of my throat. But I also have a lot of difficulty swallowing. It feels as if my throat has shrunk. Really moist food goes down fine. What could this be?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have severe anemia and upper respiratory tract infection.
You may have iron deficiency anemia, vitamin B12 deficiency or blood loss. You should search the cause of anemia first.

You should go for complete blood count, peripheral smear examination, anemia profile and ultrasound abdomen.

It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment of anemia accordingly.

For upper respiratory tract infection you should take antibiotics like augmentine, azithromycin, cephalosporin or levofloxacin with antihistaminics.

Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
