How is pediatric Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis treated?

Patient's question:

On March 17, 2011, mixed-type allergic purpura recurred with joint swelling, skin petechiae, dry cough, and bloody stools, followed by the recurrence of nephritis.

Doctor's answer:

Renal puncture can be performed, and pathological results can better guide treatment and predict prognosis.
2. If the effect of hormones alone is not satisfactory, it is recommended to try combining it with Tripterygium glycosides to better protect the kidneys.
3. If there is a risk of respiratory or other infectious diseases, timely anti-infection treatment must be administered. Persistent infection will only worsen the condition.
4. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatments. Traditional Chinese medicine decoctions can minimize the discomfort caused by hormones.
