Complete Blood Count

The cells that circulate in the bloodstream are generally divided into three types: red blood cells,white blood cells , and platelets. They are made inside your bones, in the bone marrow. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. White blood cells are a part of the immune system and help our bodies fight infection, and platelets are tiny blood cells that help your body form clots to
stop bleeding.
