I've just gotten over the flu, but now I'm dealing with a really sore throat and these swollen lymph nodes on each side of the back of my neck. I've also been sweating a lot at night and my scalp itches. Should I be worried about any of this? What could be causing these symptoms?

Question

I'm really worried about my 17-year-old sister. She's had a fever for a week now, and the doctors said it's just a normal viral fever. But it's not getting better, so we got her CBC reports done, and it shows her WBC count is low. Why does the WBC count drop in viral infections? Could it be a sign of something more serious?
