What is the reason for elevated white blood cells in a complete blood count?

Patient's question:

I recently always feel that my blood routine white blood cell count is a bit high. I feel my body sometimes gets all weak, and my mental state isn't very good either. I don't know what to do now. So, I'd like to ask everyone, what causes an elevated white blood cell count in a blood routine?

Doctor's answer:

White blood cell count is elevated in a complete blood count, which generally indicates inflammation, bacterial infection, or acute stress can also cause an increase in white blood cells. It is recommended to drink more water, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, participate in functional exercises to improve the body's immunity. It is advised to go to a regular hospital to further evaluate related inflammatory indicators. Bone marrow puncture may be necessary to identify the cause if needed. Oral antibiotics can be taken to reduce white blood cell count. In severe cases, intravenous drip treatment is recommended.
