Adrenal disorders are medical conditions affecting the adrenal glands, and can be congenital or genetic. These glands secrete different types of hormones and they are a part of the endocrine system. Imbalances in the production of these hormones can lead to complications such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Adrenal gland disorders also occur due to adrenal fatigue, hormonal imbalances or the presence of tumours.
Blood Test
A complete blood count blood test will be done to check for white blood cell increase due to infection.
Imaging Tests
Abdominal imaging tests are done with ultrasound or CT scan to check the size and shape of the adrenal glands for abnormalities.
