A member asked:
Is it safe to do tonsillectomy surgery even if esr is high "32" ? should i postpone the surgery until the esr become normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends on why the ESR is elevated. If it is due to inflammation in the tonsils, then it would not matter. Your doctor should be advised of the result and it would be reasonable to go with her/his opinion. Wish you good health!
