My mother, aged 52, was recently admitted to the hospital and received treatment for fever. The final diagnosis mentioned enteric fever and acute febrile illness. Her blood report shows a white blood cell count of 12,300 cells per cumm and a platelet count of 5.38 lakhs per cumm. I would like to understand what this could indicate. Is this a serious condition, and should we consult a hematologist?

Four days ago, suddenly at midnight, I developed full body red rashes and itching. I consulted a doctor, and they said it was due to a food allergy. I had no fever, headache, or joint pain that day. My CBC blood report was normal, but my fingers and palms were slightly swollen. I have been continuing the prescribed medicines for the last four days. It is improving day by day compared to previous days. Today is the fifth day. After taking medicine, the itching and rashes go away for the full day, but every evening, I get very mild rashes and itching. Is this okay for now? Will it take time to cure? How many more days should I continue the medicine? Now I feel some pain in two or three fingers on my hand. Is this joint pain? I am scared about dengue or chikungunya. Is there anything to worry about? Please advise.
