Hello doctor,
I am a mild smoker and quit about ten days ago. I have enlisted my routine medical checkup values:
I have an ear infection, and I am taking antibiotics for the same. Is my blood report normal? Do I have to worry about my ear infection?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
It is fine. Nothing to worry about. Some variations can occur, which is acceptable. However, your LDL (low-density lipoprotein) levels are borderline high. You need some dietary changes. Please lose weight. You should have a healthy lifestyle, like avoiding fatty or oily foods. Regular exercises like brisk walking or jogging for atleast 30 minutes a day and five days a week is important. Avoid smoking and alcohol.

Thank you doctor for the reply,
Do I need to do a CBC again? Can I wait for three to four months?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
No, there is no need to repeat it. You may get it done after a few months if you have a fever or other symptoms.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
