Cbc: You didnt give the total white blood count but for me this signifies either and early viral infection or a low greade bacterial infection. The RDW and mpv are red blood cell indices and are inconsequential as related to this infection

Bacterial infection: Conjunctivitis (pink eye) and otitis media (ear infection) occurring concurrently is frequently due to non-typeable Hemophilus bacteria. Antibiotic therapy that covers beta-lactamase positive Hemophilus (like Amoxicillin with Clavulanate) is appropriate for this condition, assuming absence of penicillin allergy. I recommend seeing Pediatrician

Lab results: WBC 5.62, RBC 4.42, Hemoglobin 12.2, Neutrophil 47.7, Lymphocyte 43.6. Dr requested labs due to bruises all over both legs. Since lab, more bruises (haven't hit them) /mouth sores/swollen neck glands. No current infections. Thoughts?
What can of viral infection can cause your lymph nodes in the head and neck to get swollen,and at the same time rise your lymphocyte count?
