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. On the 18th, the bleeding spots had almost disappeared, and then oral medication was started. After a few days, she developed small spots on both lower legs, which gradually increased to her buttocks. Can she be cured? I hope to get some clarification. Thank you!Doctor's answer:
For your daughter's allergic purpura, it may be caused by a rapid 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 seek a detailed examination at a regular and professional hospital before starting treatment.
