Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. Low platelets count is known as thrombocytopenia as in your daughter case and sometimes we don't find any cause of this disorder, and we call it as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, need not worry. Is such situation occurs plenty of fluid orally helps, if there are no any other sign or symptoms. If platelets count decreases less than 50000 /c mm then we have to interfere otherwise no need particularly in so young child. If fever occurs then think about serological test for any virus.
