Managing High WBC Count in Hernia
Dear Madam/Sir My Mother aged 59 years old is having Hernia of 2mm.. Doctor recommended for surgery but WBC Count is 16000+. How to control WBC & to Control WBC Which test is recommended?

General Physician
Answered on 11th Sept '24
Your mom's high white blood cell count shows there could be an infection. After her hernia surgery, you'll want to tackle that. Doctors usually suggest a blood culture test to pinpoint the infection source. High WBC can bring fever, fatigue, and discomfort. Treating the infection should lower her WBC count. Make certain she finishes all her antibiotics as prescribed to help get that WBC in check before her procedure.

One person has a cut on his hand . It was bleeding. I ate food from his hand. If that person is hiv positive. Does it transfer to me??
Female | 48
HIV is primarily transferred through some body fluids like blood. If someone with a cut on their hand eats saliva-containing food, the saliva does not carry enough virus to infect you. Being cautious will make sure to see out for symptoms include flu-like illness and talk to your doctor if you are concerned.

Female | 24
Monitoring your lactate dehydrogenase levels shows care for health. An elevated LDH value, like 3818, signals potential issues. This might involve muscles, liver, or heart. Tiredness, muscle aches, breathing difficulties - these could arise. The wise step is to consult a doctor. They'll conduct further assessments, pinpointing the root cause.

Platelet count noly. 5000
Male | 9
A platelet count of 5000 is very low. Platelets are small UCS in your blood that support the process of transporting blood to your body. When your count is low you could experience symptoms such as easy bleeding, a lot of bruises, or have nosebleeds. Low platelets can be a side effect of several medicines, infections, or diseases. To tackle the problem, doctors may either prescribe medication or transfuse safe platelets.

Am 16 and I am severely underweight and really low iorn like it's 74.4 and my hemoglobin droped from 14 to 10 and too i feel dizzy many times
Female | 16
It sounds like you're experiencing symptoms due to low iron levels and decreased hemoglobin. This can lead to feelings of dizziness and fatigue, as your body isn’t getting enough oxygen. Underweight issues might also contribute to poor nutrition. To improve your situation, focus on a balanced diet rich in iron sources like leafy greens, beans, lean meats, and fortified cereals. Alongside dietary changes, consider foods high in vitamin C to enhance iron absorption. It’s essential to speak with a healthcare professional who can evaluate your condition and possibly recommend supplements or further tests for personalized care.

However, to be certain, seeking professional medical evaluation is essential.

I am having swollen lymph nodes in my neck since two years I have done fnac and biopsy both comes with result reactive lyphadenopathy....is it Cancer????
Female | 23
Reactive lymphadenopathy means the lymph nodes are responding to something which is not necessarily cancer. This can be caused by infections such as colds. Skin conditions can also cause them. Your doctor might want to keep an eye on them for a while or do more tests to be sure. Changes are always best recorded and communicated with a healthcare provider.

My grandmother did a test and I want to know if you can read the results and tell me if it's cancerous
Female | 64
Understanding test results can be challenging; however, only a healthcare professional can provide an accurate interpretation. Symptoms of cancer can include unexplained weight loss, persistent pain, or changes in health patterns. Causes vary widely, ranging from genetic factors to environmental exposures. For peace of mind, I recommend discussing the results with her doctor, who can offer a clear assessment and potential next steps. Early detection and treatment can significantly improve outcomes.

Fews days Back I got viral fever I was cure later according to blood test reports i find blood infection then I got joint pains on legs when stoped antibiotics gain join pains was getting
Female | 20
You might have been affected by an infection with a virus that has in turn caused a blood infection which in turn may cause joint pains in your legs. Antibiotics can disrupt the equilibrium of our body's good bacteria, causing joint pain. For relief of the joint pains, you can try gently exercising, using heat or ice treatment, and taking a break. Stay well-hydrated and eat fresh and good foods to provide adequate support to your body during the healing process.

I did lft test on Friday and my globulin level is 3.70 and now Tuesday after 4 days I did again lft test and globulin level is 4 I am so scared it increasing what should I do
Male | 38
A minor rise in your globulin level in the blood profile is not usually a cause of concern. Globulin is a protein in your blood that serves as a defense against infections. The levels of this protein may at times, be affected by factors such as dehydration or infections. No need to panic if you have not noticed any change in your health or you have not developed any unusual symptoms. Consume enough water and a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables. If you observe any new symptoms or if this continues, consult with your doctor for further advice.

My uric acid test report 5.9 please tell me ok not ok
Male | 29
The uric acid level of 5.9 is already above normal. It might remain asymptomatic at first, yet if untreated, it may lead to gout, which is characterized by pain and swelling in the joints. Your uric acid level can be decreased by drinking more water, avoiding alcohol, and less red meat and seafood. Besides this method, exercising regularly may also be beneficial.

Am 16 and I am severely underweight and really low iorn like it's 74.4 and my hemoglobin droped from 14 to 10 and too i feel dizzy many times and also get sick very frequently like 2 to 3 times a month
Female | 16
It’s important to address your symptoms, including dizziness, frequent illness, and low iron levels. Being underweight can contribute to a range of issues, particularly fatigue and weakness, as can anemia, indicated by low hemoglobin. Common causes include inadequate nutrition or underlying health conditions. To help improve your iron, consider a balanced diet rich in iron sources like leafy greens, lean meats, and legumes. Pairing these with vitamin C can enhance absorption. However, I strongly encourage a visit to a hematologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance.

Male | 12 years old
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a type of cancer affecting the blood and bone marrow. Symptoms can include fatigue, frequent infections, and easy bruising. The 10% chance refers to potential risks, which may include complications, but not necessarily immediate death. Many patients respond well to treatments like chemotherapy and targeted therapy, significantly improving survival rates. It’s essential for the boy to receive care from a specialized medical team, who can provide tailored support and options. Staying informed and connected with oncologist is crucial during this time.

Based on your explanation, you are familiar with fever and have also noticed blood in your urine. This could be a symptom of a urinary tract infection or a sign of kidney problems, both of which can also cause weakness. It would be best to consult a doctor within a few days to determine the cause and receive the appropriate care.

Your alkaline phosphatase level of 269.1 is high. This enzyme level signals potential issues with your liver or bones. Feeling tired or abdominal pain could be symptoms. Liver disease, bone disorders, or certain medications raise alkaline phosphatase levels. To find the root cause and get the right treatment, follow up with your doctor.

According to the blood test results you provided, the total white blood cell (TLC) count is above the norm, which may be indicative of an infection or inflammation in the body. High TLC may come with symptoms like fever, fatigue, and coolness of the body. To deal with this problem, it is necessary to find the primary cause of the increased TLC level by conducting more tests and getting a doctor's opinion for suitable treatment.

Few subcentimetric lymph nodes are noted in left axillary region
Female | 45
When the small lymph nodes which are like little bumps show up in the armpit, they could be caused by infections such as a common cold or a cut on your arm. The nodes are part of your body's immune system and help to defend against viruses and bacteria. If the nodes are swelling or you have any discomfort, it would be a wise decision to see a doctor. They can provide suggestions for strengthening your body's resistance.

Im 25 years and I have lymph node in underarms and it's slightly painful with fever doctor says it's TB but there are no as symptoms as of now
Male | 25
Lymph nodes can become sore due to infections or inflammation, and a fever indicates that your body is reacting to something. These common examples could be caused by tuberculosis, and what if there are no other signs? It’s crucial to follow your doctor's advice, as they will likely recommend tests to confirm the diagnosis. The process should include bed rest, hydration, and stress management. Please schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss your treatment options and any additional symptoms.
