How to Prevent Recurrence of Pediatric Henoch-Schönlein Purpura

Patient's question:

Male, 6 years old, swelling in the waist and legs, with a few red spots. Initially treated at Yongcheng Hospital in Henan, later at Xuzhou Children's Hospital.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, allergic purpura is a relatively common microvascular disease. The causes include allergies caused by infections, food allergies, drug allergies, pollen, insect bites, etc., but the allergic cause is often difficult to determine. Treatment involves controlling infections, supplementing vitamins, corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, anticoagulant therapy, etc. The prognosis of this disease is good, and the course of treatment is generally 1-2 weeks. You can go to a provincial hospital for an allergen test to identify the allergen. It is important to avoid a diet without animal protein. For suspected foods, start with small amounts under close observation and gradually increase. Regular physical exercise can enhance physical fitness and prevent colds.
