Is WBC Level Of 14.1 A Cause For Concern?

My daughter is 15 years old. For over a year and half she has complained of constant pain in her belly area. It begins in her center belly and the pain moves around to her sides. She recently had a CT scan with contrast, blood work, and urine culture. The results came back clear except her white blood cell count came back high, 14.1 Do you have any suggestions?
