Hi , My 5yearold Son Is Infected With Dengue. His

Hi ,

My 5yearold son is infected with dengue. His platelet count is flactuating. On his first CBC his platelet counts 130, then the day after it lowered to 121. On his third CBC after taking papaya leaves extract it increased to 132, then it surged to 148 on the fourth CBC. Just When I thought that everything was OK , his platelet suddenly dropped to 128 on his fifth CBC test. I'm greatly worried about this flactuations and what could it do to my boy . Will it worsen his condition? What should I do to elevate his platelet to safe and desirable count . Pease help.
