So cause for platelet destruction could be infection esp bacteria in blood or dengue or malaria like cause .... Infectious mononucleosis also can be cause . in which hepatomegaly and swollen lymph nodes present ....Along with sore throat. .. You can have bronchitis or lung parenchyma infection that can lead to bacteremia and decrease platelet ... Chest x ray done for rule out respi infection.... Avoid alcohol drinking ...and avoid smoking .. For infection antibiotic can be given. .... Hope I have solved your concern... Consult physician with keeping this in mind .... Take care ....
