Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i m just recovered from dengu fever. my platelet counts are 140000. firstly let me know is it level of platelet ok for 46 year male ? secondly no oil,no spiecy food continued to what extend of time ? thirdly what extra dietary precaution are to be exercised ?
A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. Having more than 450,000 platelets is a condition called thrombocytosis; having less than 150,000 is known as thrombocytopenia. You get your platelet number from a routine blood test called a complete blood count (CBC). Platelet count has no relationship with diet. Regards DR De
