Hello
Thanks for the query and report.
ESR is. Not raised in skin allergy.
It is usually raised in chronic disease like thyroid disease and anaemia. Thyroid disease in turn can cause allergy.
I advice you to get rbc count and thyroid profile test done.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
