Question
Does pediatric allergic purpura require hospital treatment? How long does it take to improve?
Answer
Pediatric allergic purpura is best treated symptomatically, along with anti-allergic management and infection control. Eating more vegetables rich in iron can also help. Currently, a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine is often used, which has achieved certain effects. The main approach is to provide heat-clearing and blood-cooling dialectical treatment and symptomatic treatment, such as the use of anti-allergic drugs, application of immunosuppressants, etc.; if there is an infection, antibiotics will be chosen: for abdominal pain, hormone treatment is used; for joint pain, pain relief measures are provided. During the treatment period, the child should avoid going to cold air or crowded environments, avoid strenuous exercise and overexertion, and prevent the opportunity for infection.
