Hello there. I can understand your concern. Yes, that's how anemia is corrected. She can take injection and she will have to take a high protein diet. This way her hemoglobin will improve gradually. You must realise that hemoglobin requires iron and protein. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
