Hello there. I can understand your concern. ESR isn't indicative of anything specific, it levels gets high when there is inflammation. Of you don't have any symptoms, then don't worry about it. It will go down on its own. Consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
