What is the reason for high lymphocyte count in children's blood routine test?

Routine blood tests for children can detect many diseases. Generally speaking, if a child has a high lymphocyte count, most of the time it is caused by a viral infection, which may be in the upper respiratory tract, or it may be caused by nasal congestion and runny nose. It is best for parents to pay attention to it and go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Pay more attention to keeping warm, take medicine on time, and never catch a cold, otherwise it will do a lot of harm to your health.

What to do if your child has a cold

1. Adequate rest is crucial for colds. Try to let your baby sleep more, reduce outdoor activities appropriately, and don't let your baby get tired. Take good care of your baby's diet and let your baby drink more water. Adequate water can make the nasal secretions thinner and easier to clean. Let your baby eat more fruits and juices rich in vitamin C. It is said that chicken soup can relieve the symptoms of colds, so you might as well make some chicken soup for your baby to drink. Try to limit your intake of dairy products, which can increase mucus production. For babies with decreased appetite, mothers should prepare some easily digestible foods that are good in color, aroma and taste.

2. Let your baby sleep more comfortably. If your baby has a blocked nose, you can put one or two towels under the child's mattress and slightly raise the head to relieve the blocked nose. Never let babies under two years old sleep directly on pillows or place pillows under mattresses, as this can easily cause suffocation or damage the cervical spine.

3. Help your baby blow his nose. The baby is too young to blow his nose by himself. The best way to help the baby breathe smoothly is to help the baby blow his nose. You can apply a little Vaseline oil in the baby's external nostrils, which can often relieve nasal congestion; if the mucus is thick, you can try using a nasal aspirator or twisting medical cotton balls into small sticks to remove the mucus in the nose; if the nasal congestion has caused difficulty in feeding, you can use saline nasal drops 15 minutes before feeding. After a while, use a nasal aspirator to suck out the saline and mucus in the nasal cavity, and the baby's nose will be unobstructed.

4. Keep the air moist. You can use a humidifier to increase the humidity in your baby's room, especially at night to help your baby breathe more smoothly. Don't forget to clean the humidifier every day with white vinegar and water to prevent the accumulation of dust and germs.

5. Give your baby a steam bath. Take your baby to the bathroom with you, turn on the hot water or shower, close the door, and let your baby stay in the steam-filled room for 15 minutes. Your baby's nasal congestion will definitely improve greatly. Don't forget to change your baby into dry clothes immediately after bathing. If you let your baby play in slightly warm water for a while, it can also relieve symptoms of nasal congestion and lower body temperature.

6. Babies are prone to fever when they have a cold, so timely fever reduction is important, especially when the baby still has a low fever, you should give the baby some antipyretic drugs to prevent the low fever from turning into a high fever. If you are worried about the side effects of western medicine, you can choose some Chinese patent medicines for children to reduce fever, such as the Xiaokuihua Chaigui Antipyretic Granules used in many children's hospitals. It contains ingredients such as bupleurum, cinnamon twig, kudzu root, duckweed, scutellaria baicalensis, white peony root, and cicada shell. The ingredients are mild and safe, and can play an excellent role in antipyretic, antibacterial, and antiviral effects. When the fever is high, it can be used in combination with Western medicine to quickly reduce the fever and fight infection at the same time, fundamentally solving the problem of fever, treating both the symptoms and the root cause to prevent recurrence.
