Question
White blood cells: 7, Red blood cells: 4.06, Hemoglobin: 109, Red blood cell hematocrit: 0.310, Platelets: 409, Platelet hematocrit: 0.325. Additionally, her head circumference is 3CM. However, she looks healthy and often likes to stand up. Are there any issues with these indicators for my daughter (3.5 months old)?
Answer
The white blood cell count is too low. A decrease in white blood cell count can lead to weakened immunity and make her more susceptible to various infections. It is recommended to find the cause of the white blood cell reduction, which could be due to viral infections, rheumatoid autoimmune diseases, or hematological diseases. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment can be administered. If the cause cannot be removed or is unknown, symptoms can only be temporarily relieved. Generally, 1-2 types of medication to increase white blood cells are chosen.
