Question

Hi Sir or Madam, I was having a little cough sensation on the first day and the next day I immediately developed fever, shivering, and headache. The doctor has suggested a few medicines and I am taking them. I did some blood tests by self reference. Could you check the attached reports and let me know whether it is a normal viral or bacterial infection or any other issue?

If blood report shows high WBCs or neutrophils, it could be bacterial, lymphocytes suggest viral. Other markers like CRP, ESR, or procalcitonin can help differentiate. Please do the required infection markers to confirm cause.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test
