I have been diagnosed with dengue, and my platelet count is 96,000. My fever started a week ago, but now I no longer have fever or body aches, and I have not developed any rashes. Do I need to avoid any specific foods? I am not feeling weak at the moment

I recently got my blood report, and it shows that my platelet count is 100,000. However, I am currently feeling completely normal. I am a bit confused and concerned about what this low platelet count could mean.

I do not have a fever, but I am experiencing light headache, dizziness, and lower abdominal pain. I had a CBC done, which shows a low platelet count of 52,000 and hemoglobin of 9.4. What could be the cause, and what should I do?
