Answered by Dr. Panagiotis Zografakis (44 minutes later)
Brief Answer:
probably a normal variant or viral infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

since this is just a slight elevation the most likely cause is either a normal variant (that is your own slightly different but functionally normal values) or a viral disease. Less common causes may include hematologic malignancies like acute or chronic lymphocytic leukemia, tuberculosis and autoimmune disorders.

The medical history is important in evaluating any lab test result. Isolated interpretations of lab tests are not accurate and only serve as general information, as they may not apply to your case.

I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.

Kind Regards!
