An increased WBC count with increased bands (immature neutrophils) indicates an acute infectious process. Normal range for WBC is 4,500-11,000/mm².
Choice B rationale:
A resolving inflammatory process would typically show a decreasing WBC count.
Choice C rationale:
An allergic reaction would typically show an increase in eosinophils, not neutrophils.
Choice D rationale:
Neutropenia is a decrease in neutrophils, not an increase.
