Infection is one possible reason for an abnormal increase in the number of WBC's (white blood cells).
by running.
A low white blood cell count (WBC) is known as leukopenia. This condition can be caused by various factors, including certain infections, autoimmune disorders, bone marrow conditions, nutritional deficiencies, or as a side effect of chemotherapy or radiation therapy. A low WBC count may increase the risk of infections and requires further evaluation by a healthcare provider.
That is very good question. Viral sore throats will give you low WBC count.
Yes, WBC mean White blood count I would for sure talk to my doc about this. It may be ok it is according to how low it is and for how long it remains low
polycytemia
Increase in WBC means infection or an autoimmune problem
I believe that cancer does make your WBC lower.
Mildly low WBC counts are usually the result of low-grade viral infections. Even the common cold (rhinovirus) can precipitate mildly low WBC counts. (Also, on the differential, the lymphocyte portion of the WBC count is often somewhat elevated.)
When a MCH and an RBC and WBC is low, what can cause this"
wbc can be increased in aids patients through the help of stem cells... taken from the umbilical cord.
It depends on how low. The white blood cells are the infection fighting cells. An individual with a wbc below 1000 would be at risk of catching an infection ,and not have the ability to fight it off.
