It's a common entity which goes under the carpet and comes to the fore only on doin routine check up. It's called ITP (immune idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. It's a harmless entity which regularly needs check up of cbc 6 months to 12 monthly. Treatment needed only if bleeding manifestation present or platlets drop below 50k. So stay calm. Live life.
