Hello Doctor, my mother got operated for femur fracture on 23rd july her hemoglobin was 11, (Pre-operation 11. 24th 9.6.25th 8.6 and 26th 7.9) and she couldn't eat properly after operation for few days as you can see hemoglobin is reducing. Her doctor suggested blood transfusion maybe due to internal bleeding but stool test done nothing it came in reports. Is it safe to do blood transfusion. Pls suggest. Thank you so much.

Need workup for the drop in Hb. Blood transfusion can be life saving in some conditions but also has its own issues (adverse events)
