The abnormal changes in the normal count of white blood cells are known as leukocytosis. Mild leukocytosis means markable changes in the count of leukocytes. The sudden increase of granulocytes like neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils are common, this may because of myelocytes. The myelocytes are the immature white blood cells.
Leukocytosis is a medical term used to describe an elevation in the number of white blood cells in the body and may have a variety of causes, including infection, inflammation, and allergic responses. Additional causes of leukocytosis may include stress, sickle cell anemia, and the use of certain medications.
