Question
After a child has been diagnosed with allergic purpura and has received treatment and been discharged, parents are seeking further treatment methods to prevent recurrence, particularly traditional Chinese medicine treatment. How should they proceed with subsequent treatment, and where can they purchase suitable Chinese medicine?
Answer
Allergic purpura is common in children aged 2 to 9, and the risk of recurrence after hormone treatment is relatively high. First, it is important to identify and avoid allergens, as well as prevent colds. Currently, there is no need for additional consolidation treatment. The causes of allergic purpura are diverse, including bacterial or viral infections, parasitic infections, food or drug allergies, allergic reactions to dust mites or pollen, vaccination, cold stimuli, other diseases triggering the condition, and stimulation from cosmetics or chemicals. It is recommended to conduct a detailed investigation of the causes to take appropriate preventive measures.
