What is the treatment of Anemia causes by viral infection? Is the infection can still exist even after taken Antibiotic?
Have any specific symptoms to detect whether it has caused by iron deficiency or viral infection?
Ok, first off antibiotics don’t treat viral infections, only bacterial ones. So sure, it can still exist.
anemia symptoms are pretty much the same, no matter what causes the anemia. Unless you have other symptoms that also result from the same underlying problem. I’m assuming that you know from blood tests that you actually have anemia, and not something else. If not, please go see your doctor, since there could be other things going on. For example, you could have a deficiency in your platelets, too, which can be a bigger deal than the anemia.
To treat anemia caused by a viral infection, assuming it’s not severe enough to require a transfusion, you just have to have either an iron-rich diet or take an iron supplement.
