What to do if you have subcutaneous hemorrhage due to allergic purpura

Allergic purpura, also known as hematogenous capillary poisoning, is a systemic disease. Allergic purpura has symptoms of subcutaneous bleeding, which is very common. Allergic purpura with subcutaneous bleeding can generally be treated with a combination of Chinese and Western medicine. Some people can get better on their own.

1. Western medicine treatments such as medications and hormones can generally alleviate the symptoms, but cannot cure the root cause. To cure the root cause of this disease, it mainly needs to be treated with Chinese herbal medicine. It is recommended to combine it with Chinese medicine treatment. This disease can easily cause purpura nephritis, so urine routine tests should be checked regularly. Reduce activity, avoid fatigue, and avoid colds during illness.

2. In daily life, we often find "black and blue patches" on the body surface, which are called purpura in medicine. This is a sign of subcutaneous bleeding. This bleeding can be like a pinhole, called petechiae; it can also be a large area, which is the overflow of blood in the blood vessels. The color is bright red at first, and turns into yellow-brown old bleeding after 2-3 days. Petechiae, purpura and ecchymosis all indicate subcutaneous bleeding, but the amount of bleeding and the size of the bleeding range are different. If subcutaneous bleeding is accompanied by significant swelling of the skin, it is called hematoma.

3. Subcutaneous bleeding can usually get better on its own! You can use magnesium sulfate as a local hot compress to relieve the symptoms! Bleeding spots should often be differentiated from red vascular nevi on the skin. The bleeding spots are not raised, while the vascular nevus protrudes slightly from the skin surface. Bleeding spots may fade over time, but vascular nevi generally do not change. When subcutaneous bleeding occurs, you should pay attention to whether there is bleeding gums, nose bleeding, menorrhagia, fever, anemia, etc. You should go to the hospital for further diagnosis and treatment, including platelet count, clotting time, capillary fragility test, etc. The doctor will make corresponding treatment based on the results. If it is simple purpura, it will disappear on its own after a few days and no special treatment is needed. Small bleeding spots should be differentiated from red rashes or small red moles.
