Question

The child has been diagnosed with allergic purpura and the occult blood test result is +1, which has been ongoing for some time. The parents are concerned and hope to receive medical treatment suggestions.

Answer

Allergic purpura is a reactive hemorrhagic disease of the vascular changes caused by immune activation. This condition is due to increased permeability and fragility of blood vessels caused by immune emergency responses, leading to bleeding. It can affect the gastrointestinal tract, joints, and kidneys. A characteristic of this disease is that if it is not treated fundamentally, the recurrence rate is quite high, and the condition can change dramatically. Therefore, when treating allergic purpura, it is essential to seek guidance from professional doctors to ensure thorough treatment and reduce the risk of recurrence.
