A few days ago, the child had a cold and fever, but now they are better. However, the recent physical examination showed a low white blood cell count. What could be the cause? How should it be treated?
The baby is just over 8 months old and had a blood test yesterday showing a white blood cell count of 10.5, with the normal range being 4~10. The baby is not feverish and has no cold. Concerned that this might be related to the recent renovation at home, I am worried whether the hematopoietic function has been affected. I am eagerly awaiting your response.
A child with a persistently high white blood cell count and fever for three days seeks advice on whether to switch to other fever-reducing medications.
The causes of low white blood cell counts are numerous, potentially related to infections, diseases, or medication use.
The baby often has diarrhea, and the routine stool test shows white blood cells around 7-9. After taking anti-inflammatory medicine, the white blood cells decreased to 0-3, but increased back to 4-7 after stopping the medicine. How should this be handled?
Based on your description, it may be leukemia causing an abnormal increase in white blood cells and enlargement of the liver and spleen, requiring hospitalization. The situation is dangerous, please seek medical attention promptly.
