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

View all10 years ago, I was diagnosed and treated for Hodgkin lymphoma. After one year of ABVD chemotherapy, my report was normal. What is the chance it will come back? Do I need any checkups, and if yes, please mention them.
Answered by Apollo Doctors
My blood report says leukocyte count is 3900 cells per cumm, platelet count is 86 thousand per cumm, and SGOT AST is 72 IU per L. How can I get back to normal. What am I suffering from. Should I go for some check up? Please help.
Answered by Apollo Doctors
Please check my blood report. Some values are higher. Please advise as I am very worried after seeing this report. I also tested urine routine and microscopy which are normal?
