My wife recently went to the doctor because she's been having some joint pain. She's only 33, and the doctor recommended a CBP test and an ESR test. The results show her Total WBC Count is 11200, her absolute lymphocyte count is 4480, and her ESR is 22. I did a bit of research online and found out that a high WBC count could be alarming and might even indicate cancer. Are these results something we should be really worried about? Do they suggest anything serious we should be aware of?

I'm having some pretty intense pain in the lower side tips of my toe joints, and it's really strange because there's no swelling at all. It seems to flare up every time I start walking after resting, especially first thing in the morning. What could be causing this? Do you have any insights or suggestions on what I should do?
This type of pain in the feet fingers and joints, especially when starting to walk after rest, could be due to a condition called plantar fasciitis. To help relieve the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) or naproxen (e.g., Aleve) to reduce inflammation and pain. Additionally, you can also try stretching exercises for the feet and calves, wearing supportive shoes with cushioned insoles, and using orthotic inserts to provide better arch support. If the pain persists, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
