White blood cells are one of the body\u2019s key components responsible for eliminating pathogens and foreign substances. Your white blood cell (WBC) count can indicate various abnormalities in the body. Let\u2019s look at how high or low WBC counts can affect your health.<\/p>\n

“White blood cells” and their role in the body<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

White blood cells are a type of blood cell found in the circulatory system and throughout the body. As a part of the immune system, they play a crucial role in removing pathogens, bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances that enter the body.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Normally, the body has about 4,500\u201310,000 white blood cells per cubic millimeter of blood. Whether the WBC count is higher or lower than this range, it can signal diseases or abnormalities occurring in the body.<\/p>\n

What is a high white blood cell count and what are the symptoms?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

A high white blood cell count means the number of WBCs in the blood is above normal. This often occurs as the body mounts an immune response to foreign agents\u2014such as infections, viruses, or certain medications. When WBCs exceed 11,000 cells per microliter, it suggests the body may be facing an abnormal condition, such as infection or inflammation.<\/p>\n
