What Could High Platelet Count After Dengue Indicate?
My son had a dengue fever last week and advice to repeat a cbc after a week . CBC result yesterday that he had a high platelet 550 is this alarming? The lowest platelet he got when he had dengue is 76 and after a day its 96 and advises us to go home.
Hi, dengue is the viral fever and platelets count goes down to very low level. But after the episode of viral infection over it will start increasing. msny a time it may rise above the normal level also.its just a reactive thrombocytosis and its ok. No need to worry or concerned about that. It will become ok by itself. thanks for using health care magic.
