Platelets are the small cells in your body that stick to the wall of a blood vessel following injury. They clump together and prevent bleeding. If you have low platelets in your blood, or thrombocytopenia, your ability to form clots and stop bleeding may be impaired. Therefore, there are some things you should know about living with low platelets.
Thrombocytopenia, the name for low blood platelets, results in your blood not clotting, or not clotting as well as it should. It has several causes, and a person whose blood is not clotting as it should needs to see a doctor so the cause can be determined.
The platelets and plasma clotting factors are extracted from donated blood and concentrated for use. These factors are used to treat people with such clotting disorders as hemophilia.
Eat bannannas for potasium and eat red meat for red cells or get a blood transfusion.
thin, bright red blood means that your platelets are low.
A low platelet count, called thrombocytopenia, causes the blood to fail to clot easily. A healthy platelet count should be between 150,000 and 450,000 platelets per micro liter of blood. A level lower than 150,000 platelets indicates thrombocytopenia.
because leukemia is cancer of the blood :)
No, low blood cell count is not a symptom of leukemia, it is a symptom of anemia.
our blood has substances called as blood platelets. When blood is exposed to air, the platelets solidify and thus the blood from a cut gets stopped. Having low platelet count in the blood can be fatal even if you have a small wound...

Blood platelets help blood clot.
