RBC Count
A Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count test is a simple blood test, where the number of red blood cells is measured. The RBCs contain hemoglobin, responsible for carrying oxygen to body tissues. A healthy number of RBCs ensures that adequate oxygen is received for proper functioning.
An RBC count test is done for the following symptoms:
- Fatigue
- Headaches
- High Heart Rate
- Shortness of breath
- Joint Pain
- Dizziness
- Disturbed sleep
A high or low count of RBC can adversely affect your health and cause diseases. It leads to discoloration of the skin and problems in breathing.
As this test is a simple blood test, no prior preparations are required.
