What Are The Effects Of White Corp Muscle Count?

yes, my uncle has a high white corp muscle count. I'm a bio major so I'm very curious as to what his could mean. his main physical symptom are swollen legs and feet so much that he can not even put on his shoes the doctors say he has an infection but has not bumped into anything and has no cuts. what could this mean? he also has a long history of strong drinking so im very curious to know if the two can be related
