Question
The platelet count of a 11-year-old child is as high as 404*10^9/L. Looking at the health check report, what abnormalities should be focused on and carefully examined?
Answer
Based on your medical description and the child’s health check report, the child’s platelet count is slightly lower. In clinical diagnosis, there are many reasons that can cause a decrease in platelet count, but your child’s platelet count has not reached the diagnostic criteria for primary thrombocytosis, so you don’t need to worry too much. You can recheck the blood routine after a month, and for now, just observe and treat. Sometimes bacterial or viral infections, as well as blood dilution, can cause a slight decrease in platelets. The above suggestions are for reference only and hope they are helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
