95 is not that bad...you still not in danger zone which starts at 40. There are two ways to make platelets jump back up in normal range (1) prednisone and (2) drinking boiled papaya leaves water for a few days. But ,its good to find out why platelets are falling.

LearnAll is right. Papaya leaf juice (Very little quantity) once a day helped my dad improvise his platelets a lot when he was in need. But that’s just a home made remedy if you’re in need.

The doctors will anyways have to find out the real reason it’s low.

Goodluck.
