My wbc count is 10.5 thou/ul instead of being b/w 4.0-10.0 thou/ul.what can be the reason?is it something to worry about?

See below...: The normal WBC range is generally 4000-11000 but sometimes different labs have slightly different reference ranges. So yours is still within normal limits but at the higher end. If you currently have a sore throat, it may be an infection. You could check again after symptoms disappear, it should go down.
