Patient's question:
Is it serious that my daughter got allergic purpura at the age of 5?Doctor's answer:
?Hello. Purpura is a type of rash that appears under the skin's epidermis. The condition primarily affects the capillary walls of the gastrointestinal tract, joints, and kidneys, increasing their permeability and fragility, which leads to bleeding symptoms. The intrinsic factor in allergic purpura is having an allergic constitution, which plays a dominant role in the onset of the disease. This situation requires active attention. It is important to determine the type of purpura needed to be treated—whether it is a simple skin issue or kidney-type purpura, or blood-related disorders. It is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
