Hi Thanks for posting your query. Your symptoms are suggestive of infection. It could be due to viral or bacterial. But low platelet count is very common in viral especially Dengue infection. I advise you to get tested for dengue and repeat platelet count daily till it starts raising . You can take tab dolo 650mg 3 times a day. Kindly revert back with reports..
