Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Absolute eosinophil count must be far higher than this to make the diagnosis...
It is usually, not necessarily, a feature of allergy
Parasitic infestations are often the basis for it... Filaria in blood, worms in stool need to be tested...anti- helminthic treatment can help
Rarely, it is a primary disease involving them ... Haematologist will have to see...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
