There can be multiple reasons for high blood cell count. Primarily due to low oxygen levels, certain medications and cancer

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a BRUCELLA IGG AND IGM PANEL Test or Take a MYCOPLASMA PNEUMONIAE – IGM Test

My 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 recently got tested for a pap smear and my report is negative, but I am having endocervicitis, inflammation, and mild pain. Is it okay to do exercise and yoga while having cervicitis? Or should I avoid workouts?
