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.

Platelet count of 100 (mild thrombocytopenia) can be normal for some individuals. If there are no symptoms (bruising, bleeding), just monitor.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a PERIPHERAL SMEAR Test

My mother has started developing patches on her skin since the last couple of days, and they are increasing day by day with itching. Yesterday we did a blood report which shows WBC 11,800 and platelets 486,000. Please suggest?
