What are the four items of anemia?

Mean red blood cell volume (MCV), red blood cell volume distribution width (RDW), reticulocyte (Ret) and immature reticulocyte index (IRF).

How to do it specifically? Just to draw blood or something?

Usually draw blood on an empty stomach in the morning.

What are the specific causes of anemia?

There are many reasons. I suggest you find out the nature of anemia first.

Different types of anemia have different reasons.

The main causes of anemia are:

1. Insufficient growth of qi and blood, such as malnutrition and indigestion;

2. Excessive blood loss, such as massive bleeding (menorrhagia), lingering illness, long-term anxiety, etc.

Severe anemia can cause dizziness, pale face and lips, cold hands and feet, numbness of limbs, palpitation, shortness of breath, drowsiness and dry skin.

Long-term vegetarianism, diet to reduce weight and partial eclipse may all lead to the deficiency of iron or vitamins B 12 (cobalamin) and B9 (folic acid) necessary for hematopoiesis, leading to red blood cell maturation disorder.

The manifestations of iron deficiency anemia: white face, white lips, white tongue, white fingernails and white conjunctiva. Eat more blood-red foods, such as pig blood, chicken blood, Monopterus albus, lotus root, red dates, red beans, medlar, cherries, apples and beets. (Note: 1. Milk, black tea, coffee and red wine will hinder the absorption of iron)

Sometimes, due to the weak digestive ability of the spleen and stomach and the lack of enzymes, the body can't effectively absorb vitamins B 12 and B9 from the original food, which will also affect hematopoiesis and cause difficulties.

Vitamin B 12 deficiency anemia: bitter mouth, tongue pain, numbness of limbs, memory loss, mental trance and unbalanced walking. Eat more: animal liver, meat, dairy products. (Note: Vitamin B 12 does not exist in vegetables and fruits)

Blood deficiency caused by folic acid deficiency: black lips, black nails, black knuckles and black veins. Eat more: oranges, oranges, eggs, liver, beans and dark green vegetables. (Note: drinking or cooking with wine, or overcooking food, will destroy folic acid contained in food)

To sum up, I suggest that you must supplement nutrition and improve digestion and absorption. Moxibustion with moxa sticks at Zusanli, Zhongwan, Guanyuan, Sanyinjiao and Xue Hai has obvious effects. At the same time, you can come to my blog, pay attention to me and see how Guyuan ointment is made, which has excellent effect on correcting anemia!

The more complicated reasons of blood deficiency are related to: congenital gene defect, abnormal premature death of red blood cells, destruction of autoimmune attack, blood group mismatch between mother and child, and the influence of hemolytic drugs and toxins. Although it is difficult to achieve satisfactory results, the treatment method is basically the same as above.

In addition to diet, it is to strengthen exercise. For example, walking for about 30 minutes every day, aerobics or Tai Ji Chuan will definitely increase the blood flow of lower limbs and provide more favorable conditions for hematopoiesis of long bones such as tibia and fibula.
