Question
What does it mean when the white blood cell count reaches 20? How long does treatment take to heal? What are effective treatment methods?
Answer
An elevated white blood cell count may be related to blood disorders if there are no signs of respiratory or other infections. It is recommended to recheck the routine blood test after antibiotic treatment and, if necessary, undergo a bone marrow cell examination to confirm the diagnosis. An increase in white blood cells is usually due to infections such as respiratory infections, gastrointestinal infections, and urinary tract infections. If symptoms of body infection occur or if fever is present, it is generally advised to start anti-infection treatment first.
