Common causes for increase in total blood count?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Which cells?: Do you mean red cell count or white cell count? Increase in white cell count is usually due to infection. Increase in red cell count may be due to hypoxia or a form of cancer of red blood cells - polycythemia vera.
