A significant increase in white blood cell, red blood cell, and platelet counts on routine blood tests is a good indicator of thickening of the blood, but it is not an accurate indicator.
Blood consistency is the viscosity of the blood, which is usually measured by blood rheology if it is to be measured accurately. Blood tests do not directly reflect the consistency of the blood, but they can give a general idea of the consistency of the blood.
Through routine blood tests, it is possible to know the number of various blood cells in the blood routine, and the number of blood cells is often closely related to the blood viscosity. If the number of cells, the number of white blood cells and the number of platelets are significantly higher, the viscosity of the blood tends to be significantly higher.
There are more factors leading to blood thickening, such as hypothyroidism, systemic lupus erythematosus, Cushing’s syndrome and other diseases can induce hyperlipidemia, which leads to blood thickening. When blood thickening occurs, it is important to seek medical attention for the next step of examination and treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
