Hi This sounds more like an allergy to me.Is it possible to send me a picture and get a new white cell count done?
Meanwhile try an anti allergic like Fexofenadine 120 mg once a day for 15 days. You may additionally require a short course of corticosteroids (under doctor's supervision) to clear it up.
