elevated eosinophil count in the bloodstream
Eosinophilia refers to an elevated level of eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, in the bloodstream. Eosinophils play a role in the body's immune response, particularly in combating parasitic infections and in allergic reactions. High eosinophil counts can be indicative of various conditions, including allergies, asthma, parasitic infections, and certain autoimmune diseases.
