How To Decrease Neutrophils In Body?
Question: How to decrease Neutrophils in body ?
Brief Answer:
High neutrophil is due to bacterial infection, infection should be treated.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
High neutrophils should be viewed along with total leucocyte count or WBC count.
If both WBC and neutrophils are high, it is probably due to bacterial infection.
Treatment and control of infection will decrease the neutrophil count as well as WBC count.
Nothing specific needs to be done for high neutrophil count.
Treatment of underlying disease is required.
For more information, you can post the blood report.
Thanks and take care
