How to determine if it is a blood disease?

Patient's question:

Four-year-old girl, previously ill with a blood routine examination, normal white blood cells, but with a low neutrophil count consistently below 20%, lymphocytes always between 70-80%, normal platelets, sore throat with swelling when suffering from upper respiratory infection, submandibular lymph nodes swollen. Two years ago, she had Mycoplasma infection with a titer of 1:320, which was treated with erythromycin and cured. After the Spring Festival in 2009, she had two episodes of upper respiratory infection in succession, less than a week apart, and was treated with cephalosporin and antiviral drugs (intravenous infusion) while also taking oral roxithromycin. During the period of high fever, she used antipyretics several times. Blood routine examination showed white blood cells below 3, neutrophils 6.6%, lymphocytes 80%, and platelets 85%. Mycoplasma titer 1:320. Mouth ulcers present.

Doctor's answer:

Due to the inability to conduct face-to-face consultations with patients, a comprehensive understanding of the condition cannot be achieved. The above suggestions are for reference only, and specific diagnosis and treatment should definitely be carried out in the hospital under the guidance of a doctor! There are many causes that can lead to pediatric blood diseases. If a child is diagnosed with pediatric blood disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
