Hi thanks for asking question.

You have not mentioned how much increased in wbc count ??

You might have bacterial infection anywhere In body that can lead to increased wbc count .It is treated with antibiotic.

Some other causes like metabolic disorder like gout, hyperthyroidism , post surgery , history of myocardial infarction can also lead increased count.

If your total count is more then 50000 and premature cells increased with few atypical cells seen then bone marrow examination might needed.

If still cause not clear detailed investigation needed according to physical examination.

Take care.

Wish you good health..
