Patient's question:
My daughter is now 6 months old. She has had a fever for more than 3 days recently, with unstable body temperature. She has been taking children's fever reducer continuously. It may be due to excessive diet and over-medication causing stomach discomfort. She went to the hospital for a check-up and found that her total platelet count was 87. Based on the above data about platelets, is there a possibility of purpura?Doctor's answer:
This is a decrease in platelet count caused by medication, don't worry. It will return to normal after stopping the medication for a period of time. It is considered to be drug-induced thrombocytopenia, and it will return to normal after stopping the medication. It is recommended not to overuse anti-inflammatory drugs without inflammation, and you can choose one to two traditional Chinese medicine treatments. It is recommended that you go to a regular and professional hospital for examination and treatment. Pay attention to keeping the skin clean and dry, and the diet should be light.
