I have been having a constant headache along with severe throat pain. My WBC count is 14,800.

A WBC count of 14,800 along with severe throat pain and headache likely points to an active bacterial throat or sinus infection. This could be due to tonsillitis, strep throat, or sinusitis, and may require a short antibiotic course. Until you consult your doctor, stay well hydrated, do warm salt water gargles, and avoid cold or spicy food. If symptoms worsen or do not improve in 2 to 3 days, a throat swab test and CRP can help confirm the infection type.
Dr. Siri Suggests...
Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

View allDoes the below test report indicate any potential problems during pregnancy? My haemoglobin and RBC count are lower than normal, while the WBC count is higher than the normal range. Additionally, the urine test shows a trace amount of sugar. I would like to know if these values being outside the normal range could cause any complications during pregnancy.

Sir my friend is 26 years old. His RT PCR report is negative but he has fever cold cough and loss of smell and taste. Today I got a CT chest scan done. Please check my report for any infection.

Hi, I got tested three days ago. I noticed some readings in the report that seem imbalanced, but I am not sure if it is something to worry about or if I need any medication.
