An ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test is a blood test that measures how quickly red blood cells sink to the bottom of a test tube in one hour. A faster-than-normal settling rate indicates high levels of inflammation, which can be caused by infections, autoimmune disorders, or chronic diseases.
