Patient's question:
Can allergic purpura be treated with medication? Is surgery necessary? Are there any good methods? Does anyone have any knowledge about this?Doctor's answer:
First, most cases of allergic purpura can be treated. However, it is prone to recurrent episodes and is a relatively common microvascular vasculitic hemorrhagic disease. The causes include allergies triggered by infections, food allergies, drug allergies, pollen, insect bites, etc., but the allergic cause is often difficult to determine. More than half of the patients who achieve remission will experience one or more relapses within 2 years. Over 95% of patients have a good prognosis. Patients with poor prognosis and those who die are mostly those with chronic purpura nephritis.
