WBC is not only an infection marker. I can be high in different situations. As u mentioned ESR is 16 which is better indicator of infection than CBC. So just ignor and i don't think u have any infection at moment if u r not having any temperature. So just reassure yourself and don't think too much.

Thanks

Don’t worry about cbc
Stop antibiotics and take plenty of fluids

As long as you are having no symptoms like fever, CBC doesn't matter even if it is raised. So there is nothing to worry about as all other tests are Ok.
