Can Back Pain Be Caused By Abnormal WBC, Lymphocytes And Neutrophils Level?

My husband has a WBC 13.4, Lymphocytes 17, and Neutrophils 10. He hasn't had any fever but has had severe low back pain for 3 weeks. Anti-inflammatories and hydrocodone have been prescribed and haven't touched the pain. We are going in for a repeat CBC later today.
