[|Human|] my 2 year old granddaughter was taken to pediatrician due to red patches on inside of one hand and on foot, Dr. mention that her bloodwork showed it was fighting a virus but didnt know cause of red patches, what does it mean when bloodwork showing its fighting a virus.
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She may have viral infection. In viral infection blood work shows high lymphocytes count and low platelet count.  Lymphocytes become reactive. So according to these findings we can say that its viral infection.  Red patches may be due to low platelet count or some other cause.  You should go for platelet count and coagulation profile also. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
