What to do in case tlc is increased?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Find the cause: Tlc(total leucocyte count) is commonly called wbc(white blood cell count) in the us..Can be increased due to many causes. Often it is due to infection or inflammation. But there are some blood disorders that can cause it to rise. You need to go see your doctor and have him/her find the cause..It may take some more testing to investigate it.

See below: an increase in TLC is a sign of hyperinflation, usually indicating COPD or some type of obstructive process. This is treated by treating whatever your underlying disease is.
