Patient's question:
Doctor, my child is 13 years old and has primary ITP. Are there any good methods?Doctor's answer:
For the treatment of ITP, the general conventional therapy includes hormone or immunoglobulin therapy, which shows significant short-term effects. However, once the dosage is reduced or the medication is stopped, platelet counts immediately decline, making rebound common. Alternatively, Chinese medicine therapy can be used to treat ITP.ITP stands for Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura, which is an autoimmune disease also known as Autoimmune Thrombocytopenic Purpura. The cause is unknown, and it is classified into primary and secondary types. The former is often associated with immune disorders in the body, while the latter is caused by medications or other diseases.
