What is the use of CBC blood test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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.
