I'm really concerned about my 2.5-year-old son who seems to be having a lot of weather change allergies. Our doctor often prescribes him nebulization with Duolin and saline water. I'm just wondering if there are any major side effects we should look out for? Also, with all the pollution here in Gurgaon, do you think plain saline nebulization every day could be actually helpful for him?

View allMy child recently had a fever, so we took him to the child care hospital. They did some blood and urine tests, and the doctor told us everything was normal. However, I noticed that the neutrophil count in his WBC was quite low. The tested count came in at 12, whereas I believe the actual count should be around 1744. Should I be worried about these low neutrophil levels?
A low neutrophil count, also known as neutropenia, can make your child more susceptible to infections. In this case, since the tested count is 12% and the normal range is 17-44%, it is slightly below the normal range. To help increase the neutrophil count and boost your child's immune system, you can consider giving them supplements like Neupogen (Filgrastim) at a dosage recommended by the doctor. Additionally, ensuring your child maintains good hygiene practices and eats a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables can also help improve their immune system. It is important to follow up with the doctor for further evaluation and monitoring of your child's neutrophil count to ensure it returns to the normal range. Regular check-ups and blood tests may be recommended to track the progress.
