I gave a blood sample for my thyroid yesterday, and now the spot on my arm has turned black and green and there's some swelling. Should I be worried about this? Could it be something serious?

- Taking Dolo 650 (paracetamol) before or after COVID-19 vaccination is generally safe to alleviate fever and body ache. However, consult your doctor or vaccination provider for personalized advice.
- COVID-19 vaccination is generally safe for depression patients aged 64 and above. However, inform your vaccination provider about your depression and any medications you're taking to ensure necessary precautions.

View allMy platelet count has been stuck at 70,000 for 15 days and isn't going up, which is delaying my fracture surgery. I've tried caripil carica leaf extract, papaya fruit and leaf juice, kiwi, and giloy soup and tablets but nothing's working. What else can I do to boost my platelets quickly?

I'm looking at my platelet count and it's at 120, but the normal range is supposed to be above 150 according to the report I got. Should I be worried about this? Does platelet count change daily, or is it pretty stable? If there's anything I can take over-the-counter to help, what would you recommend? I've attached my report, in case that helps.
A platelet count of 120 is mildly low (mild thrombocytopenia), but not typically serious unless accompanied by other symptoms like bleeding, bruising, or petechiae; platelet counts can fluctuate, but significant changes are unlikely on a daily basis

I'm a bit concerned about my lab results. My lymphocyte count is at 0.99, and my total WBC is 4.9. I recently took a COVID test, and it came back negative, and the COVID antibody test was also negative. I did take a course of cefpodoxime a few days ago. Could that be affecting my lymphocyte count? Also, what is considered a normal range for lymphocytes? Would appreciate any insights.
A normal lymphocyte count for adults is 1,000 to 4,800 lymphocytes per microliter of blood. For children, the normal range is 3,000 to 9,500 lymphocytes per microliter of blood.
