Question
The child has allergic purpura and is currently experiencing abdominal pain and vomiting. There are red spots on the legs and difficulty in movement. After being diagnosed at Xingcheng Hospital, it was told that there is no cure and hopes to transfer to this hospital for treatment.
Answer
Allergic purpura is an allergic vasculitis that affects the capillaries and small arteries of the skin or other organs. Treatment should first exclude allergens, with simple cases using compound rutin, calcium supplements, vitamin C, and antihistamines. For fever and arthritis, corticosteroids can be used, but this cannot prevent kidney involvement. For stubborn chronic nephritis, immunosuppressants may need to be added. In addition, precautions should be taken in everyday life.
