Anemia treatment in Cancún

Anemia is a condition in which the blood has fewer red blood cells or hemoglobin than normal, so oxygen does not reach the body's tissues in sufficient amounts.

Common symptoms:

• Tiredness and weakness
• Paleness of the skin and mucous membranes
• Shortness of breath, dizziness, or palpitations

Common causes: It can originate from iron or vitamin deficiency, blood loss, chronic diseases, or kidney problems, among others.

Which specialist treats it? The internist or the general practitioner usually begins the workup, and the nephrologist takes part when it is related to the kidney. If tiredness or paleness persists, it is a good idea to have it evaluated by a professional to learn the underlying cause.
