A member asked:
Can foot fungus cause white cells to increase?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Routine foot fungus is limited to the outside surface of the body and will generally never trigger an internal response.However, if the problem is bad enough to turn into a deep skin infection/cellulitis, then an elevation in the white cell count would be expected.
