A low lymphocyte percentage can happen during acute infections or stress. It is not always serious and needs to be considered along with other blood parameters. Follow-up may be needed only if symptoms persist.

Question

I am sharing my report and just want a review on it. My platelets are low and lymphocytes are high. Is it okay and what should I do?

My daughter is 5 and a half years old and generally a healthy child. However, for the past 4 months, she has been experiencing a persistent dry cough. The doctor has given antibiotics, which help temporarily, but the cough returns once the medication is stopped. The doctor has advised a blood test. Please look into it and advise.
