Patient's question:
The child is 24 days old. The day before yesterday, when I took him for a physical examination, I found that the baby had thrombocytopenia. The doctor said it was only 4. I want to know what disease is caused by low platelets?Doctor's answer:
Intracranial hemorrhage, hematuria, and other conditions can be life-threatening. Some patients believe that thrombocytopenia purpura is essentially a form of leukemia and that it is accompanied by swelling and pain, with no side effects. In severe cases, purplish spots may appear on the oral mucosa. When platelet counts drop to 20,000, lower limbs, and other areas. During the illness, platelet counts can decrease to 40,000–50,000. The psychological stress is significant, but there is actually no need for it. Patients may also experience gastrointestinal bleeding. Thrombocytopenia purpura shares some symptoms with leukemia. I recommend that you take a detailed look at other test results.
