[|Human|] My son has had a really high fever of 103,4 for over 2 days. Today i took him to the er. They said it was a uti and that his white cell blood count was low. I also just found out that crones diease runs in my husbands family. Could this low white cell count mean my son has this diease?? he is only 5 months old.
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Bacterial infections like urinary tract infection (UTI) can cause low white blood cell count. Appropriate treatment of UTI is required with appropriate antibiotics. The white blood cell count will improve once the infection clears.Crohn's disease is not known to affect the white blood cell counts directly so this is not a symptom of Crohn's disease. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
