What are the symptoms of purpura in children

Purpura is a very scary skin disease, which is mainly manifested by the appearance of many red spots under the skin, but there is no bleeding. Many rashes may also appear on the skin surface. Patients with purpura cannot eat most things. Purpura can make people feel very painful, and some may even experience necrosis on the skin surface. There are many reasons for purpura, but most of them are caused by children buying junk food and eating it indiscriminately. Let’s take a look at the symptoms of purpura in children.

Most cases present with skin purpura as the first symptom. Skin lesions appear as pinpoint to soybean-sized petechiae, ecchymoses or urticaria-like rashes or pink maculopapular rashes that do not fade when pressed, which is purpura. Purpura may merge into patches and eventually turn brown. It usually disappears within 1 to 2 weeks without leaving any trace. In severe cases, blisters, blood blisters, necrosis and even ulcers may occur. The rash often occurs in weight-bearing areas, especially on the extensor side of the limbs, especially the lower limbs, around the ankle joints and buttocks. The lesions are symmetrically distributed, appear in batches, and are prone to recurrence. Purpura alone is called simple purpura.

Most of the skin manifestations of allergic purpura are characterized by skin purpura as the first symptom. It often appears on the limbs, distal extensor side, buttocks and back, but rarely on the face and trunk. Purpura is symmetrically distributed, appears in batches, varies in size, and can merge into pieces, or even form hemorrhagic blisters and hemorrhagic necrosis. Purpura usually disappears on its own within a few days. In a few cases, it may be accompanied by angioedema or urticaria of the eyelids, lips, hands and feet.
