High platlet count
I did a CBC from Metropolis yesterday and my platlet count shows 574, why is it elevated? And my last year's platlet count was 550 and in 2020 my platlet count was 594. Why has my platlet count been always high

High platelet count is termed thrombocytosis as far as medical sciences are concerned.... It rarely requires an extensive examination ... If other hemtological parameters are normal.
