What Causes Low Platelet Count And Nose Bleeding?
My daughter has had a low platlet count (just recent count 104), but no other concerns with blood counts/levels, etc. She just had a bad nose bleed, which I know is not unusual. However, now she is complaining of stabbing like pains in hands and feet. Like someone is sticking her with a pin. Could that be related to low platlets?

Low platelet count is directly related to nose bleed so you shoud do complete blood count and peripheral smear examination and coagulation profile.first search exact cause of that and then treat accordingly. And stabbing pain in hand and foot mah be due to vit b12 deficiency or anemia or may be due to some other condition. It will reveal in ps examination. So investigate properly.
