Question
How Can a 7-Month-Old Baby Have Elevated Platelet Levels?
Answer
Children are prone to a reactive increase in platelet levels after infections or discomfort. As long as the levels are not excessively high, there’s no cause for concern, and they will gradually return to normal. If the increase is more pronounced, encourage the child to drink more water and undergo anti-infection treatment. There are many causes of pediatric blood diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric blood disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, follow dietary and pressure-reducing instructions, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid irritating and cold foods.
