Doctor's answer:
Allergic purpura is a common vasculitic hemorrhagic disease caused by an abnormal immune response to certain allergenic substances, leading to widespread small vessel inflammation. This enhances the permeability and fragility of small arteries and capillaries, accompanied by exudative skin rashes and edema. The main clinical manifestations include skin purpura, mucosal rashes, joint pain, abdominal pain, and kidney damage. Allergic purpura is more common in children and adolescents, with a higher prevalence in males than females, and is more frequently observed during spring and autumn. Allergic purpura in children poses significant harm to them, and it is recommended that parents take their children to a specialist for follow-up treatment under medical guidance. In daily life, children can be given sufficient care and attention, with particular emphasis on their dietary issues.
