Hello and welcome to HCM,
The interpretation of the hemogram is as follows:
An increase in total white blood cell count is seen in infections.
The differential count suggests increase in neutrophils.
An increase in neutrophils occurs in cases of bacterial infection like pneumonia, salpingitis, cholangitis, appendicitis, stress, steroid therapy, acute blood loss etc. .
Thus, increase in neutrophils suggests bacterial infection.
You need to consult your doctor with report for prescription of antibiotics.
Thanks and take care
