A member asked:
Can anyone tell me what can a slight increase in leukocytes mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal variation: Leukocytes are white blood cells. Their levels fluctuate all the time. I would not be too concerned. But if their levels are markedly increased (like 20 billion/ litre) over their normal number (4 billion/ litre) then that is a sign of a viral or bacterial infection.
