What are the risks of low red blood cells?

The normal value of human red blood cells is (4.0-5.5) × 1012/L for adult males and (3.5-5.0) × 1012/L for adult females. When the red blood cell count is consistently lower than this normal value, it is called erythrocytopenia. A decrease in red blood cell count indicates that the body may be anemic, when the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood decreases, resulting in the following hazards to the human body: 1.

2, when the human blood cell reduction in order to ensure the oxygen supply to the heart and brain and other important organs, the human body will contract the skin, mucous membranes and other peripheral blood vessels, resulting in skin, mucous membrane pallor and other ischemic manifestations, severe human peripheral skin or mucous membrane may be due to ischemia ulcers, necrosis and other lesions.

3, red blood cell reduction in the body will also increase the body’s oxygen supply by increasing the heart rate, respiratory rate, palpitations, deep and fast breathing and other performance, heart and lung long-term overload will lead to lung infections, anemic heart disease and other appearances, and in severe cases, even heart failure.

4.Red blood cell hypoplasia can also involve the digestive system to appear indigestion, bloating, loss of appetite and other manifestations.

5, in addition, the lack of nutrients in various organs and tissues caused by red blood cell depletion can also produce different degrees of damage to the immune, endocrine, reproductive and other systems of the human body, destroying human physiological functions and producing various uncomfortable symptoms.

In summary, red blood cells as the main component of the blood plays a role in the transport of oxygen and nutrients, red blood cell reduction will be harmful to various systems and organs of the human body, the corresponding clinical manifestations, should be timely diagnosis and treatment.
