White blood cells are bigger than red blood cells and normally are fewer in number.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a Apolipoprotein B Test Test or Take a Phosphorus, Inorganic - Serum Test

Hello Doctor, My baby is 11 months old and had a fever for the past week. We consulted a doctor and she took Amoxycillin for 5 days. For the last three days, there was no fever, but she still had cough and cold. Now the fever has returned with a temperature of 99F. For cold we are using Moticope drops, and for cough, Korafast drops. We did a blood test, and the results are normal. I am very worried about why the fever has returned. I am attaching the blood test report for reference.

Last year I had dengue, and again 3 months ago, I contracted dengue. To monitor my health, I usually get a CBC done every 30 to 45 days, and I have noticed that my lymphocyte count is gradually increasing, initially it was 20.6 percent, then 36 percent, and now it is 48 percent, which is worrying me. My current symptoms include numbness and cramps in the hands, occasional pain in the armpits, and ear pain. I also go to the bathroom 2 to 3 times a day, usually after breakfast or lunch. Please guide me on whether this is serious, the further steps I should take, and if possible, suggest a diet to maintain healthy lymphocyte levels. I am attaching my CBC lab reports for your reference.

I have been having light bleeding for a month. The doctor has advised me to take Pause MF to stop the bleeding. I have taken all hormonal tests, PCOD, and thyroid tests, and everything is within the normal range. Can I take Pause MF to stop the bleeding? For how many days can I take it?
