Hat does a high mpv with a normal platelet count means? i have various symptoms including joint pain, bone "growths" red and flaking skin and bruising

MPV: Mean Platelet Volume. this tells us the average size of the platelet. In cases of Low platelet count in ITP the MPV is usually high . we blieve that MPV high means the platelet performance is good
