Question
How should one handle a child’s sudden thrombocytopenia?
Answer
Since viral and other pathogens can stimulate the body’s immune response, leading to thrombocytopenia, it is advisable to avoid hormone treatment during colds and to closely monitor platelet counts. If the child is diagnosed with pediatric kidney disease, timely treatment is necessary, along with measures such as gastrointestinal pressure reduction. Parents should also pay attention to their child’s balanced diet, avoiding picky eating and preferences.
