Detailed explanation-1: -A lower than normal platelet count is called thrombocytopenia. This condition can cause you to bleed too much after a cut or other injury that causes bleeding. A higher than normal platelet count is called thrombocytosis. This can make your blood clot more than you need it to.
Detailed explanation-2: -Thrombocytopenia is a condition that occurs when the platelet count in a person’s blood is too low. The normal platelet count in adults is 150, 000–450, 000 platelets per microliter (µl) of blood. A person with thrombocytopenia will have a platelet count below 150, 000/µl.
Detailed explanation-3: -Complete blood count (CBC) This test shows your platelet count and other blood cells in your blood. Platelet disorders are grouped based on platelet count, which is the platelet count in a certain amount of blood. A normal platelet count is between 150, 000 and 400, 000 platelets per microliter of blood.
