my father is a diabetic patient . age about 46 years. he has symptoms like high grade fever, nausea and vomiting. report showing 46000 platelet count. he is diagnosed as dengue and typhoid fever. and the report says that he is also having cholelithiasis. As he is under treatment but there is no such improvement in his health. can u please tell me how much time he will take in recovery ? and what should we do so that he will recover soon ?
Hello Your fathers low platelet count is due to dengue fever. He needs regular monitoring of platelet level. He will be fine soon. He only needs close observation. Findings also suggests gall bladder calculus. Medicines are usually not helpful in gall badder calculus. He should go for definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus. Definitive treatment of gall bladder calculus is surgical removal of gall bladder(cholecystectomy). You can plan operation after his recovery from fever. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
