Number one, find out the cause. Avoid certain foods such as bananas, lettuce etc...foods that can contain tiny microorganisms.....avoid colds, infections etc.....If you are neutropenic, your immune system can be very compromised.
Treatment of neutropenia depends on the underlying cause. Medications: Patients with fever and other signs of infection are treated for seven to 10 days with antibiotics. Nutritional deficiencies are corrected by green vegetables to supply folic acid.
The prognosis for mild or chronic neutropenia is excellent. Recovery from acute neutropenia depends on the severity of the patient's infection and the promptness of treatment.
Your pediatrician would best be able to tell you treatments for neutropenia in children but in many cases, the white blood cells will regenerate themselves with time if the neutrophil count has gone down because of an illness such as the flu. If treatment is necessary, how severe the neutropenia is will determine the course of action in regards to treatment. The doctor may prescribe injections of a neutrophil growth factor or if the neutropenia is severe enough, your child may have to have injections of granulocyte colony stimulating factors (G-CSF's). This is generally only prescribed for severe chronic neutropenia. If the neutropenia is caused by illness such as leukemia, a bone marrow transplant is often the best treatment.
Cyclic neutropenia is a condition of recurring shortages of white blood cells.
Neutropenia is a low level of white blood cells (WBC), which are called neutrophils
Neutropenia has no specific symptoms except the severity of the patient's current infection. In severe neutropenia, the patient is likely to develop periodontal disease, oral and rectal ulcers, fever, and bacterial pneumonia. Fever.
