Permanent Solution of Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) in Ayurveda

Posted on by

Thrombocytopenia is a malfunction that relates to platelets count, which can happen to anybody around the globe. There are various natural remedies that can heal this disorder like ashwagandha, Aloe Vera, take food that is rich in vitamin C, Papaya leaf juice, cortisone, exercises and you should take out stress from your mind.

Platelets, or “thrombocytes” as they say in medical language, are small, irregularly shaped cell fragments. The average lifespan of a platelet is normally just 4 to 9 days. They are responsible for clotting of blood in case of a cut or wound in a mammal.

They are present in blood and are spread all over the body with blood. When they find any damaged blood vessels, they bind together to curb the blood from flowing out of the body. The normal or healthy range of platelet count is 150,000 – 450,000 platelets per micro liter of blood.

Any kind of increase or decrease in platelets count can become very dangerous for a human body, and can cause a heart attack, enhance the blood pressure, brain hemorrhage or the cause blockage of blood vessels to other parts of the body, such as the hands and feet. The name given to this disease of the platelets is called as thrombocytopathy, which could be either number of platelets is low (thrombocytopenia) or it can be a reduction in the normal functions of platelets (thrombasthenia).
