Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi my daughter is nearly four and her neck glands have been bigger than normal and she has started snoring around the same time when she sleeps!!! Took her to the doctor and her blood result show that her ESR is 32 and her CRP is 22!!! What could that be???
Hi...any child of this age can have insignificant cervical lymphadenopathy and this is quit common. The blood tests do not mean anything. Simple viral illness can cause such result in the blood tests. Unless the kid has got prolonged fever or morethan 2 weeks duration and loss pd appetite and significant weight loss, sever anemia and pallor you need not worry.
