Best Answer

When the leukocyte count is high, the physician should suspect either an infection or cancer, as these are the two most common reasons for an elevated leukocyte count. Depending upon the rest of the physical examination and the results of the rest of the blood tests, your physician may already know which of the two it is.

What is the condition where white blood cell count is ten times higher?

A raised white blood cell (leukocyte) count above the normal range is termed leukocytosis. It can be indicative of a wide variety of conditions, including viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic infection, cancer, hemorrhage, and exposure to certain medications or chemicals including steroids. The normal human adult leukocyte count is 4.4-10.8 x 109/L, and a count 10 times higher than that could certainly be considered above the normal range.A leukocyte count above 25 to 30 x 109/L (if it is a physiologic response to stress or infection) is termed a leukemoid reaction.
