White blood cells can be counted by a lab technician, usually a haematologist. When a blood sample is taken the number of white blood cells can be counted and if increased or decreased from the norm this will help in a diagnosis being made.
An infection would increase a person's white blood cell count.
Can a bladder infection cause a low white blood count

Due to the limited field of vision of microscopes, it is comparatively easier to count the number of white blood cells in a stained blood smear under low power than under high magnification. Although the individual cells would be smaller and thus more difficult to count, there would be more in view at any given time.
over 10,000 cells per microliter
A normal white blood cell count is within the range of 4,500 to 10,000 cells/mcL, so a count of 40,000 is very high. This would indicate that the body is responding to an infection.
There are 500 white blood cells to every 1000 red blood cells (or you could say there is double the amount of red blood cells). The answer would be 200 red blood cells for every 100 white blood cells.
You should probably see a doctor.........White blood cells and cells that fight infection are the same thing........You might have a skin disease Also, a high white blood cell count means that your body is fighting an infection somewhere internally, or in your case, possibley externally.
white blood cell count that increases in the presence of an infection
A white blood cell count of 10.6 x 10^9 cells per liter is slightly elevated, as the normal range is typically between 4.5 to 11.0 x 10^9 cells per liter. This could indicate an infection, inflammation, or other immune system response in the body. Further evaluation, including a differential white blood cell count and assessment of clinical symptoms, would be necessary to determine the specific cause of the elevated white blood cell count.
yes.And the white blood cell will count very high due to the infection of apendicsus.
A total white blood count gives a single number - how many white blood cells were present per milliliter of sample. A differential white blood count breaks the number down among the different white blood cell types - neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, basophil, eosinophil. Different white blood cells will respond to different types of pathology - neutrophils are associated with bacterial infections, eosinophils with parasite infestation, monocytes with chronic infections, etc.
