A high lymphocyte in children can mean infections such as mononucleosis and pertussis.

These are my report results, and my sodium level is 148. I experience excessive mucus in the morning and at night, chest pain, and bubble like sputum coming through my nose. I also feel tired, and my blood pressure is high. What could be the reason for these symptoms?

Hi, my husband is 39 years old. He has had viral fever with cold and cough for the past 3 days. He took medication and the fever has now reduced. His blood reports are normal, no malaria or typhoid. Yesterday his platelet count was 1.51 and WBC was 7,200. He was given papaya leaf tablets and papaya. Today, his platelet count increased to 1.67, but his WBC decreased to 5,800. Is it normal for WBC to drop like this during viral fever?
