In ITP, the body's immune system, for unknown reasons, destroys healthy blood platelets. It also impairs the body's ability to produce platelets. Slowing the destruction of platelets is one approach to ITP treatment. Most treatments for ITP interfere with the immune system to help reduce platelet destruction. Some of these treatments are FDA approved for ITP and some are not. Many of these treatments are immunosuppressants.

Have juice extracted from papaya leaves daily, one spoon of it. This will help her to increase her platelet count very faster. And as it is naturally, its safe, though little time consuming but good and safe solution for low platelet count.

इओसिनोफिलिया एक ऐसी स्थिति है जब आपके रक्त में इओसिनोफिल के सामान्य स्तर से अधिक पाया जाता है। इओसिनोफिल्स एक प्रकार की बीमारी से लड़ने वाली श्वेत रक्त कोशिका हैं। इसे कई बार सामान्य भाषा में स्नोफीलिया कहा जाता है। यह स्थिति अक्सर परजीवी संक्रमण, एलर्जी प्रतिक्रिया या कैंसर का संकेत देती है।
आपके रक्त में उच्च स्तर के इओसिनोफिल्स कई जगहों पर पाए जा सकते हैं खून में (रक्त इओसिनोफिलिया) या संक्रमण या सूजन (ऊतक इओसिनोफिलिया) के स्थान पर ऊतकों में भी हो सकते हैं।
