What should be done about children with purpura nephritis?

Patient's question:

My child said they had a stomach ache after going to school. At first, I didn't know what to do, thinking they might have eaten something bad, so I told them to use the restroom. The next morning, they came down and still said it hurt, and their stomach had started to turn purple again. So, what should I do about childhood purpura nephritis?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination of the urine routine and renal function to check for any abnormal conditions. If abnormal inflammation reappears, it is primarily considered to be indicative of nephritis. In terms of treatment, the main approach involves using some anti-allergic medications in combination with hormones for regulation. Hormones must be used under the guidance of a doctor, with gradual dosage increases to prevent the recurrence of side effects.
