Hello, please check my report and tell me if everything is okay. What does an increased MPV mean? And why is my RBC count also increased?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been suffering from cold and cough, and for the past two days, I noticed blood in my cough. I went to the hospital, and the doctor advised a blood test, which came back negative except for a mild infection. The doctor prescribed Azithromycin 500 and flu medicine. However, I am still coughing up blood 2 to 3 times. What should I do now?
