Is it cancer if all four parameters of whole blood viscosity are low

Low whole blood viscosity in all four aspects is usually not a direct manifestation of cancer, and may be related to factors such as anemia, blood dilution, or chronic inflammation. Whole blood viscosity is an indicator that reflects blood fluidity, and when it is low, it needs to be comprehensively judged in conjunction with other tests. Low whole blood viscosity is common in physiological or benign pathological conditions. Anemic patients may experience a decrease in whole blood viscosity due to a reduction in red blood cell count or insufficient hemoglobin, resulting in a decrease in blood oxygen carrying capacity. Long term malnutrition or iron deficiency can also affect blood composition. Some chronic diseases such as liver disease and kidney disease may lead to a decrease in plasma protein synthesis, resulting in a decrease in blood viscosity. Pregnant women may also experience similar test results due to physiological blood dilution. In rare cases, certain blood system diseases or malignant tumors may indirectly affect whole blood viscosity. Abnormal proliferation of white blood cells in leukemia patients may interfere with normal hemorheological properties. Abnormal globulin produced by multiple myeloma may alter plasma viscosity. However, these diseases are often accompanied by abnormalities in other specific indicators, such as significant abnormalities in blood routine, changes in bone marrow imaging, or elevation of tumor markers, and cannot be judged solely based on a single indicator. When abnormal whole blood viscosity is detected, complete blood routine, coagulation function, biochemical complete set and other tests should be carried out. If necessary, bone marrow puncture or imaging examination should be performed. It is necessary to maintain a balanced diet in daily life and supplement foods rich in iron and protein in moderation, such as lean meat, animal liver, dark vegetables, etc. Avoid excessive dieting or picky eating, and regularly check blood indicators. If accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, bleeding tendency, or weight loss, seek medical attention promptly for further investigation.
