A low basophil level is called basopenia. It can be caused by infections, severe allergies, or an overactive thyroid gland.

What causes the neutrophil/lymphocytes ratio to be high?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi Doctor. I have had a fever for the last three days, especially at night, with a temperature of 102 degrees F, chills, and headache. My lab report shows neutrophils 80 percent, lymphocytes 16 percent, and WBC indicates neutrophilia. Widal test is 1:160 for both TH and TO. COVID test is negative. The doctor prescribed Paracetamol and Cefamid 200, but there has been no improvement.
