It’s Viral fever , which typically presents with low WBC count . Need not worry about the platelet count .
Advice the patient to drink plenty of fluids and check the platelet count once in two days until it’s more than 1.5 lakh
Next Steps
Drink plenty of fluids. Hydration is important.
Keep the temperature under control.
Health Tips
Look for any signs of bleeding, like reddish spots over the body, dark coloured stools .If so, then get admitted in a hospital

Better take paid consultation to discuss your case. Don't expect free advice.
