For pain management with ITP, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is generally considered a safer option compared to other over-the-counter pain relievers. It doesn't increase bleeding risk like aspirin or NSAIDs do.

However, always consult with your doctor before starting any new medication, even over-the-counter ones. Beyond medication, some helpful coping strategies include:

• Following your prescribed treatment plan to maintain healthy platelet counts
• Using protective gear during daily activities if needed
• Avoiding high-risk activities that could cause injury
• Maintaining regular check-ups with your healthcare team
• Adopting a healthy diet to support overall immune health
