Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me what could be the reason for high white blood cell count in children?Doctor's answer:
White blood cell count is high, indicating inflammation in the body. It could be due to a cold with fever, trauma, respiratory infections, soft tissue infections, etc., which can increase white blood cells in the body. Treatment requires Western medicine antibiotics, while traditional Chinese medicine uses heat-clearing and detoxifying herbs. Both can help reduce white blood cell count.There are many triggers for childhood blood diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a blood disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
