4.2 gm is extremely low hemoglobin , blood transfusion is required at the earliest.Transfusion is carried out after screening .Like any other procedure blood transfusion carries risk but very rarely occurs.

Hi dear
any intravenous procedure has its own complications but overall in today's time very less side-effects occur because of transfusion.
Also the hb is quite low so giving blood transfusion is justified in this case
Kindly consult in case of further query
Take care
