Patient's question:
I have allergic purpura and purpura nephritis. After a kidney biopsy, I was told it was mesangial basement membrane fibrosis nephritis. I am currently undergoing hormone treatment, mainly due to immune system dysfunction. You mentioned adjusting the immune system, how is that done? It's not that the immune system can't be adjusted, and it's very prone to relapse, right? How can the kidney be repaired? After kidney damage, it's not irreversible, is it?Doctor's answer:
Purpura suffers from an immune system disease, and this disease primarily manifests as kidney damage, which is generally irreversible. The treatment mainly involves oral corticosteroid drugs. The goal of treatment is to implement immune regulation. It is recommended to take some traditional Chinese medicine orally to regulate the body's constitution, especially for those with poor immunity. Regular follow-up tests of various indicators are also necessary. It is advised that patients maintain a balanced nutritional intake in daily life, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen the body, and keep a cheerful mood to enhance their constitution and accelerate recovery.
