Hallo .Thank you for asking this question . Your baby must be suffering from some viral infection . Dengue is again a viral infection but report is not suggestive of that . Platelet count 1 lac 67 thousand is absolutely normal , you have to worry if it is dropped down to 50, 000 . Second report is low . I suppose this is because of better hydration of your baby on that day . Hope I have answered your query . For further questions please contact .
