Question
My child is 6 months and 2 weeks old and has had a recurring fever. They had blood tested yesterday. How should I interpret these blood test results?
Answer
According to the blood test report, the child’s lymphocyte ratio is elevated and the neutrophil ratio is low, indicating a higher possibility of viral infection. Common infectious factors include Coxsackie virus, Echovirus, influenza virus, and adenovirus. It is recommended to observe the child’s symptoms further. If the situation does not improve or worsens, seek medical attention promptly to receive an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
