Hello and welcome to HCM,
Eosinophil count of 7 is slightly raised.
The normal eosinophil count is between 0-6.
Eosinophils are raised in conditions like parasitic infection, allergy, drugs are certain neoplasms.
In case any of the above mentioned conditions are present, they have to be managed, however, there is no treatment for raised eosinophil counts.
Thanks and take care
