Is a high blood platelet count bad? I've had it for years, I'm 18.?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Is it normal to have slightly elevated platelets count?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My father has easily bruising skin, especially in a particular season. There is no pain or itching. We have done a blood report, which shows a low platelet count, which may indicate a purpura-like condition.
