Only treatment for low platelet count is platelet concentrates, these are given when count falls to dangerously low level We need to treat underlying cause of low platelet count which in this case seems to be spleen enlargement. Sometimes spleen needs to be removed, consult your treating doctor and discuss all options We need to find the cause of spleen enlargement as well
