Question 1

Hi, my son is 3 years old and weighs 15 kg. He had no problems at birth. Last month, he was having wheezing sounds in his chest, and the doctor prescribed an inhaler for 14 days. Now he is fine. Today, his blood report shows mild eosinophilia with an absolute eosinophil count of 584, eosinophils 8 percent, monocytes 9 percent, lymphocytes 51 percent, absolute lymphocyte count 3723, platelets adequate, and the remaining values, including IgE, are normal. We stopped the inhaler today as per the doctors prescription. I want to know what mild eosinophilia means, what the treatment is, and whether we should stop or continue the medicine since he currently has no cough or cold?

Question 2

I am suffering from stomach ache since 29 May morning and I got mild fever on 29 May evening. Both my fever and stomach ache come and go. The maximum fever recorded till now is 99.6 F. I also had a small episode of loose motion but that is now settled. My blood report is normal. Please guide what could be the reason and if it can be COVID?

Question 3

I am 53 years old and have been experiencing fever (99 to 104F) for the past week. My recent blood report shows:
WBC: 171,770 cells/cmm
Hemoglobin: 9.1 g/dL
RBC: 2.60 million/cmm
Blasts: 60%
I am also experiencing gum swelling and bleeding. Please advise what could be the reason for the increased WBC count, and which specialist should I consult for further evaluation.

I have been suffering from fever for the last six days, with temperatures around 99 to 100 degrees F, along with weakness. I am taking Azithromycin 500 mg tablets. My blood report is also attached.

Low grade fever lasting more than 5 days along with weakness can point to a viral illness, early bacterial infection, or conditions like typhoid or dengue. If Azithromycin did not help and the fever persists, it is important to identify the cause. Please consult your doctor with the report.
