Thrombocytopenia: Signs and symptoms
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))

Thrombocytopenia typically produces a sudden onset of petechiae or ecchymoses in the skin or bleeding into any mucous membrane. Nearly all patients are otherwise asymptomatic, although some may complain of malaise, fatigue, and general weakness. In adults, large, blood-filled bullae characteristically appear in the mouth. In severe thrombocytopenia, hemorrhage may lead to tachycardia, shortness of breath, loss of consciousness, and death.

(Handbook of Diseases)

Thrombocytopenia typically produces a sudden onset of petechiae or ecchymoses in the skin or bleeding into any mucous membrane. Nearly all patients are otherwise asymptomatic, although some may complain of malaise, fatigue, and general weakness.

In adults, the brain and the gastrointestinal tract are the most common sites of hemorrhage while large blood-filled bullae characteristically appear in the mouth. The bullae are another site of hemorrhage, but they may not herald GI or brain hemorrhage. In severe thrombocytopenia, hemorrhage may lead to tachycardia, shortness of breath, loss of consciousness, and death.
