Hello well yes in case of viral fever the platelets to come down especially in case of dengue. .. the platelets come up on itself all we have to do is to give supportive treatment make sure that you have food well and keep yourself hydrated... there is no point in giving platelets unless and until it comes to a level of 20000 or there is any spontaneous bleeding.thank you
