What's going on with the lymphatic system

summary

A few days ago, my friend's child caught a cold and took some medicine in the pharmacy. Yesterday, a friend called to say that the child's condition did not improve after medication, so I accompanied her to the hospital to have a check-up for the child. The doctor diagnosed the child with a stethoscope and said it was OK. He asked the child to test a blood routine. The result showed that the lymphocyte ratio was high. My friend went to the doctor in a hurry to ask. The doctor said that there was no problem. The child had a viral cold. Just take some medicine and have a rest. Come back a week later for a blood test. My friends and I don't understand medicine, and we didn't get any results on the Internet. Now let's share it.

What's going on with the lymphatic system

First, lymphocytes are a kind of white blood cells, produced by lymphoid organs, which are divided into central lymphoid organs (also known as primary lymphoid organs) and peripheral lymphoid organs (also known as secondary lymphoid organs). Lymphocyte ratio is the percentage of lymphocyte in total white blood cell count. Under normal physiological conditions, lymphocyte ratio is 20% - 40%.

Second: there are many reasons for the high lymphocyte ratio, mainly in infectious diseases, and mainly virus infections, such as influenza, pertussis, etc. in addition, leukemia, lymphoma, etc. can also cause the high lymphocyte ratio. If you do not know in their own circumstances to take some allergic drugs will also cause lymphocyte increase.

Third: the lymphocyte ratio is high, first of all to check what causes, the general situation is viral infectious diseases, such as influenza, etc., after treatment for a period of time in the blood test to check the lymphocyte ratio, if the ratio is still high, need to cooperate with the doctor for further examination, exclude the possibility of other diseases.
