How should allergic purpura be treated?

Patient's question:

My child's condition keeps fluctuating. Sometimes they have purple spots, sometimes they don't. At times, urine tests show abnormal kidney function and blood in the urine. I don't know how to treat it.

Doctor's answer:

The treatment for allergic purpura is generally about actively identifying and treating the possible underlying cause, which is known as etiological treatment. For simple cutaneous purpura, rest is the primary approach, and excessive medication is not advisable. In some cases with severe symptoms, antihistamines, antiplatelet aggregation drugs, or even corticosteroids may be necessary. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, it is advised to pay attention to rest, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
