Inflammation in the body can usually be detected by blood tests. Changes in the number of white blood cells and the percentage of neutrophils in the routine blood test can, to a certain extent, reflect the inflammation of the body.
When there is inflammation caused by bacterial infection, the number of white blood cells and the proportion of neutrophils in the routine blood test will be elevated, and the body may also have some symptoms of infection such as fever, etc. At this time, we need to choose the appropriate antibiotics for treatment according to the pathogenic bacteria, such as the commonly used ones are cefixime and amoxicillin.
When there is inflammation due to viral infection, the number of white blood cells in the blood routine may be normal or lower, the proportion of neutrophils is normal or lower, the proportion of lymphocytes is higher, and the body may have symptoms such as fatigue, myalgia, etc. At this time, it is necessary to choose antiviral drugs such as acyclovir to carry on the treatment.
If there are abnormalities in blood counts, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further examination and treatment. The above medications should be used under medical supervision.
