Leukocytes 10-12 serious?

Leukocytes (10-12) x 10^9/L in the blood are mildly elevated, mostly related to infections, and will return to normal after the infection improves. In addition, it can also be seen in other reasons, such as physiological fluctuations, blood system diseases, etc.
1. At present, the normal reference range of leukocytes is (3.5~9.5)×10^9/L. Mildly elevated leukocytes are most often considered to be associated with infections, such as respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, appendicitis, acute gastroenteritis, etc., and it is necessary to further check whether there is cough, sputum, urinary urgency, urinary frequency, abdominal pain, fever and so on, in order to find out the cause of the disease.
2. Mildly elevated white blood cells may also be associated with certain stress states, such as postoperative, pregnancy, after strenuous exercise. Dynamic observation of white blood cell changes is needed. If the white blood cells do not return to normal even after the infection is treated and the stress is relieved, it is necessary to be alert to the possibility of certain leukemias.
Regular work and rest, light diet, regular review, and consultation in specialized departments are recommended.
