Patient's question:
My daughter is 5 years old and has been diagnosed with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura. She has been sick for 8 days and was given intravenous fluids. By the 18th, the bleeding spots had mostly disappeared, and she was then switched to oral medication. However, after a few days, she developed small spots on her lower legs, which gradually increased and spread to her buttocks. Can she recover completely? I hope to get some clarification. Thank you!Doctor's answer:
For your daughter's allergic purpura, it may be caused by an excessive reduction in hormones, leading to an increase in petechiae. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine is more effective than using either alone. Some patients with this condition may experience spontaneous remission (i.e., recovery without treatment). With proper treatment, the cure rate is relatively high. Please rest assured. It is recommended to visit a regular and professional hospital for a detailed examination before starting treatment.
