Question
Should I be concerned if my 2-year-old and 5-month-old child has a high absolute lymphocyte count?
Answer
During the ages of 4 to 6, the lymphocyte percentage in children can reach up to 50%, which is usually normal. If the child does not have a cold, there is no need to worry; if they have had a cold recently, the elevated lymphocyte count may be due to a viral infection, and it will return to normal after recovery from the cold."
