Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Fever with blood tests revealing leucopenia and thrombocytopenia can be treated with vitamins and anti-pyretics.
However, it would be better to know what could be the cause for low WBC and Platelet counts.
Kindly get Dengue Antigen-Antibody test done to rule out Dengue.
Drink good quantity of fluids during this period.
In case it is viral fever other than Dengue, it should subside in about a week time.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best and wish you speedy recovery.
