Question
Allergic purpura can lead to kidney disease. In such cases, is medication alone sufficient, or should surgery be considered? Are there other effective treatment options?
Answer
Kidney disease caused by allergic purpura is a serious condition that can lead to renal insufficiency over time. It is recommended to seek systemic treatment in a hospital’s nephrology department. For children with allergic constitutions, it is advisable to avoid keeping pets and reducing contact with animal fur and dander, especially for children known to be allergic to certain allergens. Strengthening physical exercise, improving overall health, and enhancing immunity against various infections can help avoid triggers for allergic purpura.
