Patient's question:
The child was diagnosed with allergic purpura in September 2018. After 10 months, the purpura basically disappeared. Now, sometimes the morning urine test shows trace blood, and sometimes it's normal. At the same time, I've noticed a situation: sometimes the child's left eyelid swells for several days, and sometimes it doesn't (because the child has double eyelids, if the left eyelid isn't symmetrical, it's noticeable that it's slightly swollen). The right eyelid has never had this issue. What could be going on? Does anyone know? What kind of help is needed: What could be going on? Does anyone know?Doctor's answer:
Hypothesis: The main causes of Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura are: 1. Bacterial and viral infections 2. Parasitic infections 3. Food 4. Medications 5. Other factors, such as cold, trauma, insect bites, pollen, vaccination, tuberculin skin test, menopause, and even psychological factors.Recommendation: Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura poses significant harm to patients. It not only severely affects their physical and mental health but also greatly disrupts their appearance. If left untreated for a long time, it will be very beneficial to the patients' physical and mental health.
