What triggers low white blood count cells?

Answer 1

White blood cells fight bacterial infections in our bodies. So an increase in white blood cells from their normal level would often indicate a bacterial infection. Very often an antibiotic is prescribed to treat the condition.

Answer 2

Your body will have a lot of "bad" bacteria and will make you sick. (there is "good" bacteria that makes your skin smooth which is why hand sanitizers only kill 99.9% instead of 100%)

If you have too much, then your white blood cells will mistake your red blood cells for the "bad" bacteria that make you sick.

(I think that's how you get blood cancer)

Answer 3

Normal white blood cell count is 4000 to 10,000/ cubic mm. When ever infection invades the person, the white count increases. This happens to tackle the infection by white blood cells. Incidentally, in intracellular infections like malarial fever, typhoid fever, rickettsial fevers and all viral fevers, the white blood cell count is not raised. This happens, probably because the white blood cells can not go and engulf the microorganisms there. So in disease conditions, where white blood cells are low in number, the defence mechanism is defective.

Answer 4

A low WBC's can be caused by immunosuppressive medications, viral infections, or toxic reactions.

Answer 5

Decreased white blood cells is a low count of white blood cells in the body called leukopenia

Answer 6

Answer 7
