I recently moved to a hilly region. For the past 4 days, I have developed large red rashes mostly on my limbs and some on my stomach. Initially red, some rashes developed pus, and after 2 days, some turned magenta, especially after wearing jeans all day. In my locality, there are many insects, including large mosquitoes. My blood test report shows: Hemoglobin: 14.7 Polymorphs (Poly): 72 Lymphocytes: 21 ESR: 10 Other parameters: Normal Please advise what might be causing these rashes and the next steps or treatment.

Likely allergic or insect bite reaction. No sign of serious infection in CBC. Consult dermatologist if rash worsens or spreads.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a IgE Test Test

View allMy 8 month old niece has had a persistent fever for the past 2 weeks. It normalizes when given antipyretics but recurs every 8 to 10 hours. She has a normal diet but sometimes skips meals. She has also vomited 2 to 3 times. A blood test report showed a high lymphocyte count of 58. She traveled about 400 km last week, although comfortably. Could this affect her condition? What could be the reason, and what do you suggest? Thank you in advance.

I am a patient of endometriosis and panic anxiety disorder. I have been taking Dienogest for 2.5 years to control my endometriosis cysts, and over time the cysts are decreasing in size. My right ovarian cyst is 1 cm and my left ovarian cyst is 3.5 cm. For panic anxiety, my doctor gave me some blood tests and prescribed Rexipro 5 mg. After taking this medication, I no longer have anxiety problems and I feel almost normal. My test reports are as follows: T3: 0.97 ng/mL (0.58 to 1.59), T4: 7.34 mg/dL (4.87 to 11.72), TSH: 1.68 IU/mL (0.35 to 4.94), Glucose Fasting Plasma: 89 mg/dL (74 to 109), Urea: 13 mg/dL (17 to 43), Creatinine: 0.59 mg/dL (<0.95). My CBC results are mostly normal except the following: Hemoglobin: 13.7 gm/dL (11 to 14), Total Leucocyte Count: 12,000 /cumm (4000 to 11000), HCT: 43.2 Vol percent (33 to 42), RBC: 5.01 millions/cumm (3.8 to 4.8), MCHC: 31.7 gm/dL (32 to 36), Neutrophils: 80 percent (40 to 75), Lymphocytes: 17 percent (20 to 40), Monocytes: 1 percent (2 to 8), ESR: 30 mm (2 to 17). I am worried about some of my CBC parameters. Why are they not normal? Please help.
