Should I Be Concerned About WBC 4.0 And Low Neutrophils Level?

Hi there. I m going away for 6 months shortly, I ve been required to have a medical which I ve recently received the results for, I m generally healthy except my neutrophils level has been flagged as low (1.9 - x10e9/L) my wbc is 4.0. Am I to be concerned? I have been prone to infections recently, I ve had a few infected sebhoric cysts, and my lymph nodes have been inflamed several times this year. Thank you

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your total wbc count is low normal with slightly low neutrophil count. It may be due to some normal variation or viral infection. If you don't have any symptoms like fever and bodyache then nothing to worry. Just be relaxed.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
