Having Allergic Rhinitis, Cbc Test Shows Lymphocytes Levels Elevated. Meaning?
Hi I am 28 yo female, I have a CBC Count, Hematocrit is 37% Hemoglobin is 12 g/L WBC count is 6.9 Segmenters is 58% Lymphocytes is 42% which is a bit higher than normal which supposed to be 20-40%. I have clear and normal Lungs as per chest Xray, I dont have cough or flu. I just have Allergic Rhinitis / Sinusitis . What does that bit high Lymphocytes mean? Thanks!

Hi, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das,
First of all the test results indicates that you have normal hemoglobin level, hematocrit value, polymorphs,lung fields.
Lymphocyte level is marginally raised. In many condition lymphocyte may get increased like chronic inflammation, viral infection etc. So, dont worry, it does mot mean you have any critical disease.
