Low lymphocytes and neutrophils indicate an imbalance in the body’s immune function, which is seen in viral infections, abnormal bone marrow hematopoiesis due to various causes, etc.
Peripheral lymphocytes and neutrophils are immune cells in the body.
1. When there is a low lymphoid indicator and high neutrophils, it suggests a disorder of the body’s immune function, which is most commonly seen in viral infections, including influenza virus, rubella virus, EBV, cytomegalovirus, but also in typhoid fever, plasmodium, tuberculosis, and other infections with specific bacteria. It can cause infectious lymphocytosis, mumps, infectious mononucleosis, measles and other diseases.
2. In addition to this, abnormal bone marrow hematopoiesis caused by malignant tumors after radiotherapy, acute and chronic leukemia, aplastic anemia, and other hematologic disorders can also result in an increase in the percentage of lymphocytes and a decrease in the percentage of neutrophils.
Under normal circumstances, the percentage of lymphocytes is 20%~40%, when the examination finds that the lymphocyte index is low in high neutrophils, we should consult the doctor in time, clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of the doctor, and carry out the treatment for the specific disease.
