Child Has Fever, Cold, Throat Pain, Ear Pain. Taking Roxid And Allegra. History Of Pneumonia And UTI
Hello Doctor,
My daughter 9 years old, had mild temperature four days back and had cold and complained throat and ear pain.
She is on Roxid and Allegra now for three days and to continue for another two days more. She falls sick very often.
Two years back she had pneumonia and was treated then urinary infection and my doctor advised me for a routine blood smear test and CRP test, the result says, haemoglobin - 11.8gms, Total WBC count 8,800 cells, neutrophils 56%, Lymphocytes 38%, Eosinophils - 06%, ESR - 30Min - 05mm, 60min - 12mm, RBC count - 3.9million, Platelet count - 2.18lakhs, PCV - 35%, MCV 89.7fl, MCh-30.2pg, MChc-33.7%, CRP - 15.8mgs/dl, her urine reports are all negative. Please advise why the crp level shows high.

Welcome to HCM.
There are so many conditions where crp increase and suggest some inflammation in the body. but report shows borderline high eosinophil count.It suggest some allergic episodes.Try to find out triggering factor.
Continue allegra which is anti allergic.If not recovered with roxid than switch over to another antibiotic like amoxy/clavulinic.
Also rule out any chronic inflammatory conditions in the body because CRP is high.
Keep in touch with your doctor and ask every thing to him.
