Consult what is aplastic anemia

Patient's question:

Age: 83 years old
Gender: Male
All symptoms: Whole-body pain. The soles of the feet are purple, with many ulcers (hard parts) and many waist ulcers (many doctors say they are bedsores), which recurred in mid-October of this year. The doctor carefully checked the platelets, red blood cells, and white blood cells in the blood. There was a history of benign prostatic hyperplasia, cholecystitis, and kidney stones.
Treatment: Over a month in the township hospital, with no effect. Is this disease aplastic anemia, or is the pain caused by nerve endings? This is my father. He is 83 years old. Can he be cured of this disease?

Doctor's answer:

The main clinical manifestations of aplastic anemia are anemia, skin breakdown, and infection (fever). Currently, it is not like aplastic anemia, but a careful bone marrow examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. Your father may have bedsores, but now his main symptom is foot pain, making walking more painful, with purple soles and many ulcers (hard parts). Many doctors say this is due to three low blood concentrations, and the symptoms have reappeared. It is best to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. If it is bedsores, it is best to treat them.
