Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
From your son blood report it indicates that your son is having some bacterial infection as his wbc count is quite high.
Platelet count is normal.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
With one course of antibiotic your child will be alright.
Avoid giving cold drinks.
Ok and bye.
