Patient's question:
Can children's purpura be cured?Doctor's answer:
Allergic purpura is one of the most common vasculitides in children, characterized by small vessel vasculitis as the primary lesion, and is an autoimmune disease. The main features include skin purpura, normal platelet count, often accompanied by joint swelling and pain, abdominal pain, hematuria, and kidney involvement. It is more common to develop in winter and spring. If Western medicine is used, hormone therapy is generally administered. However, hormones have significant side effects. It is recommended that you visit a hospital to see a pediatric traditional Chinese medicine specialist for herbal treatment of allergic purpura, which can also be quite effective.
