Answer

  1. General Treatment: Pay attention to rest, increase physical activity, and prevent collisions. Those with platelet counts below 20×109/L should strictly remain in bed to prevent severe skin breakdown or even intracranial hemorrhage.
  2. Carbazochrome, Vitamin C, etc., can constrict blood vessels and stabilize capillary permeability, which is beneficial for increasing skin integrity.
  3. Glucocorticoids: If there are no contraindications, they are the preferred treatment drugs with an efficacy rate of up to 85%. Prednisone is commonly used; for severe cases, dexamethasone or methylprednisolone can be administered intravenously, and then changed to oral administration after symptoms improve.
