My latest blood test shows a platelet count of 85,000, and Im really worried. Could this be a sign of dengue, or is it more likely a regular viral fever? Ive attached the test report for you to see. What do you think?

I'm 20 years old and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to drink Ensure powder since I'm anemic. Can this help with my condition?
Yes, you can drink Ensure powder drink at the age of 20. Ensure is a nutritional supplement that can help meet your daily nutrient requirements.

I recently had a blood test and they poked me with a needle, but the doctor couldn't find the vein right away and kind of moved it around under my skin. That was a few days ago, and now there's this light green patch where they poked me. I'm a bit worried because I thought bruises were usually blue or black. Is this light green color something I should be concerned about?
Thats called echymosis no need to worry it will self resolve if its bothering you much use thrombophobe ointment it will help you
