In the early stages of an infection, most of the increase in WBCs is attributable to the increase in neutrophils. As the infection continues, lymphocytes increase. Worm infections can trigger an increase in eosinophils, whereas allergic conditions, such as hay fever, trigger an increase in basophils.

An eosinophil count is a measure of the number of a specific type of white blood cell. A high count can mean an acute allergic reaction to a substance, early stages of Cushing disease, parasitical infection, or rarely, acute hypereosinophilic syndrome. The eosinophil count can be artificially raised by taking psyllium based laxatives, certain antibiotics, amphetamines, tranquilizers or interferon.
White blood cells will increase in number when you are sick. There are several types. Each will respond differently to the type of infection. One type is the eosinophil and it will show increased numbers due to allergies. The normal number of WBCs in the blood is 4,500-10,000 white blood cells per microliter (mcL).
