Book Aluminium Serum Test in Kolkata

Aluminium is one of the most commonly used metals in the world. Aluminium is used in several daily products such as – cans, foils, several kitchen utensils, window frames, airplane parts, etc. The causes of aluminium toxicity could be following:
Drinking or ingesting substances with high levels of aluminium
Breathing aluminium dust in a workplace
Living near an aluminium processing or mining field
Living near hazardous waste sites or dumping ground
Living in areas with a high concentration of aluminium
Exposure to small amounts of Aluminium is obviously to be avoided, but it is not very harmful. Problems start to arise when there is an accumulation of aluminium inside the body. In such a case, the person suffers from aluminium toxicity. We already saw what the repercussions of aluminium toxicity are – especially in young children. The aluminium serum test measures the level of aluminium inside the body and gives a clear indication as to whether treatment is needed.

Generally, there is very little risk of any major symptoms inside the body. The person might feel slight pain (or some bruising) in the area where the needle has been pierced to take the blood. But those tend to disappear pretty quickly and not cause any major problems to the patient. In very rare cases, the patient might develop blood collection under the skin or infection at the site where the needle was pierced. But that is a very rare occurrence and nothing major to worry about.

The blood is taken from the arm. The area is cleaned with rubbing alcohol, and the technician takes blood precisely.

There are minor risks that do not happen under general circumstances. The technicians just need to be a little careful.

When medicine given by the doctor is ingested, the aluminium is flushed out through the urine and faeces.
