I recently took a blood test package on my own, and I found that one of the test results was not normal. The EOSINOPHILS ABSOLUTE COUNT is 0.84, and the EOSINOPHILS percentage is 10.8. Could you please advise on the significance of these results and their possible impact?

An eosinophil count of 10.8 and absolute count of 0.84 (mildly high) usually suggests allergies, mild infection, or sometimes parasitic infections. If you have no symptoms like rashes, sneezing, or breathing issues, it is not immediately concerning. Maintain hydration and a balanced diet. If you have allergies or asthma, discuss with your doctor for possible medication adjustment. If you have itching or stomach issues, a stool routine and microscopy test may help rule out worms. Otherwise, no urgent treatment is needed if you feel well.

Take a STOOL EXAMINATION, PH & REDUCING SUBSTANCES Test

I am a 29 year old male suffering from allergic rhinitis and asthma. Around three months ago, I developed severe breathlessness and underwent a chest X ray, blood test, and PFT test. The chest X ray was normal. My FEV1/FVC ratio was 81 percent, and my FEV1 was 71 percent. My blood report was also normal except for an elevated eosinophil count of 440. For the past 2.5 months, I have been using Seroflo 250/25 (4 puffs daily) and Rhine M nasal spray regularly. While I am no longer experiencing severe breathlessness, I still have some breathing discomfort, especially when lifting weights as low as 10 kg or when climbing stairs quickly. I would like to know whether I need a stronger medication or if there is an alternative treatment that might be more effective.

I have an allergy problem. Sometimes I have coughing, cold, sore throat, etc. I want a free online consultation with a general physician. I will show my report because my eosinophil count is increased.
