I am 22 years old and have been experiencing chest pain on the left side. I recently had a blood test, and the report shows an elevated WBC count of 12,440 and neutrophils at 77. All other parameters are within the normal range. Could this be a sign of blood cancer, or is it related to some other infection or condition?

A mildly raised WBC count with high neutrophils usually indicates infection or inflammation, not cancer. At 22 years old, it is more likely to be a minor infection. Still, visit a doctor for chest pain evaluation.

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

We did a blood test, and the report shows, platelets is 5.20 lacs, haemoglobin is 10.8, Serum SGOT is 99.33, Serum SGPT is 57.40, and D Dimer Quantification is 2544.47. What other tests should be done? Is this condition dangerous as the D Dimer is very high along with elevated platelets, SGOT, and SGPT? Last month, his platelets were 2.72 lacs.
