Which condition occurs due to an acute abscess?

An ACUTE ABSCESS (bacterial infection) triggers a systemic immune response: the body rapidly produces and mobilizes WHITE BLOOD CELLS (WBCs) to fight the infection → LEUKOCYTOSIS (elevated WBC count, primarily neutrophilia). Neutropenia (A) = decreased neutrophils = CANNOT fight infection. Lymphocytosis (B) = elevated lymphocytes = viral infections. Leukopenia (D) = decreased WBCs = immunosuppression, drug side effects. Acute bacterial abscess = LEUKOCYTOSIS. C is correct.
