Normal hemoglobin level for child g/l

Hemoglobin is an iron-rich protein in red blood cells that helps to transport oxygen throughout the body.

High hemoglobin levels could be due to polycythemia.

This is where the body makes excess red blood cells and can lead to clots, heart attacks, and stroke without treatment.

Anemia is a group of medical conditions that undermine the body’s ability to get oxygen. This is because people with anemia do not have enough hemoglobin or red blood cells to distribute oxygen throughout the body.

What is a critically low hemoglobin level

It is important to diagnose the cause of anemia and treat it. Dietary changes, nutritional supplements, blood transfusions, symptom management, and treatment for underlying medical conditions may help. People with symptoms of anemia, a history of anemia, or at high risk of anemia should consult a doctor for regular anemia testing.
