What should be the level of platelets?

Dr. Deepak Kumar Suman at Safdarjung Hospital tells that platelets in the body of every person do not decrease in dengue, it happens only in a few cases. Especially such cases are seen more in those with weak immunity. The level of platelets in a normal person's body remains 1.5 lakh to 4.50 lakh per microliter. In some cases of dengue, this level keeps decreasing.

If it becomes less than 1 lakh then it is considered as low platelets count, but it should not panic. If the level of platelets is more than 20 thousand then there is no danger. But if it is less then this situation can be dangerous. In such a situation, the patient needs transfusion of platelets.
