A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neutrophils: Neutophils are component of white blood cells. They can be slightly increased in many conditions, mostly reactive in nature, such as infection, inflammatory conditions etc. and may or may not treatment. Treatment of underlying cause may bring them normal. Neutrophilic leukemia is very rare.
