Does a rise in the level of lymphocytes indicate blood cancer?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

The rise in the levels of lymphocytes can be post-viral infection, chronic infection, or some inflammation.

As you are asymptomatic with no fever, I would like to know if you have any weight loss or palpable lymph nodes in the neck, underarms, or groin. If the answer is a no, there is nothing to worry about blood cancer.

You can repeat the test after 15 days, and if the lymphocyte number is increasing, then do a peripheral blood smear test and viral markers.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.

no worry for that small lymph node which is there since 5 years without increase in size and no weight loss , fever etc you look absolutely healthy

it has not much increased , your lymphocytes are increased mildly , lymphocyte number fluctuates on daily basis . your ECR is within normal limits , just repeat peripheral blood smear and cbc after 2 weeks peripheral smear can show any kind of abnormal lymphocytes or blood cells .I am sure it will be normal Regarding behind the ear condition It is common especially in childhood to have infection of bone behind the ear , this condition is called mastoiditis .The condition responds well to antibiotics. You can visit an ENT specialist for that because sometimes it can be associated with some collection

because there may be some ongoing silent infection , which in acute conditions should subside in 2 weeks , so if you repeat tomorrow it may be up again they have no clinical significe , if on peripheral smear they are normal lymphocytes and not abnormal I see daily patients with high lymphocytes counts post viral infection

both these tests are normal including urine. test, nothing to worry , your lymphocyte count is mildly increased with no clinical symptoms and no proven abnormal lymphocytes on peripheral smear just repeat after 2 weeks

the peripheral test sent by you does not show any abnormality, but they have not done it properly , It needs to be repeated and complete details should be mentioned in the reports like any abnormal white Blood cells , differential counts , platelets and RBC abnormalities
