My father has easily bruising skin during a particular season. There is no pain or itching. We have done a blood report which shows a low platelet count that may indicate a purpura like condition.

Easy bruising and low platelet count could point to a condition like ITP or a temporary reaction to an infection. If the platelet count stays low consistently, your father may need a more detailed blood and liver workup. It is best to consult a hematologist to understand the cause and decide whether treatment or observation is required. Try to maintain adequate Hb levels.

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

I recently moved to a hilly region. For the past 4 days, I have developed large red rashes mostly on my limbs and some on my stomach. Initially red, some rashes developed pus, and after 2 days, some turned magenta, especially after wearing jeans all day. In my locality, there are many insects, including large mosquitoes. My blood test report shows: Hemoglobin: 14.7 Polymorphs (Poly): 72 Lymphocytes: 21 ESR: 10 Other parameters: Normal Please advise what might be causing these rashes and the next steps or treatment.

Hi. From Monday onwards my fever has been fluctuating a lot, sometimes 104 and sometimes 99. I am having body and joint pain in my legs. I have a swollen tonsillar lymph node, but it does not hurt. I went to the hospital and they say it is viral fever. My blood results show low lymphocytes, high polymorphs, and high ESR. Can anyone please explain what my report and condition imply?
