Question
A 6-year-old and 5-month-old girl has been experiencing recurrent attacks of allergic purpura, having been hospitalized twice. She is currently at home resting, but she still has red spots on her lower limbs, knee pain, and bruising. Although she was cured during her hospital stays, red spots have now appeared on her upper limbs. What should be done in this situation?
Answer
Allergic purpura is a skin condition caused by an allergic reaction to certain substances. It is important to identify and avoid contact with allergens to prevent recurrence. It is recommended to undergo allergen testing to identify allergens and avoid contact with them to prevent symptoms from recurring. In addition, it is advisable to avoid spicy foods, fish, seafood, and other potentially allergenic foods in everyday life.
