Question
Can a blood routine test be done for cough and fever?
Answer
Based on the results of your blood routine test, the white blood cell count (WBC) is 3.5 x 10^9, the granulocyte count (Gran#) is 9.6 x 10^9, the monocyte count (LYmph#) is 3.3 x 10^9, and the granulocyte percentage (Gran%) is 71%, with the intermediate cell percentage (mid%) at 4.7%. This may indicate a viral upper respiratory infection. Treatment should include antiviral and anti-inflammatory measures, and it is recommended to undergo intravenous therapy and consult a children’s hospital. There are many causes of respiratory diseases in children, so if a child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory disease, parents should cooperate with the doctor for treatment, including gastrostomy reduction and good hygiene habits. Children need to consume a reasonable diet and avoid irritating and cold foods.
