Patients with allergic purpura can eat chicken. In the diet of patients with allergic purpura, the general principle is to try to reduce the consumption of spicy foods and some potential irritants such as celery, coriander, and shiitake mushrooms, which should be eaten sparingly. Chicken is not considered an irritant and can be consumed. In addition to strict dietary precautions to avoid allergens, patients with allergic purpura should also avoid vigorous exercise and strictly avoid getting cold and infections, as both vigorous exercise and infections can potentially trigger acute episodes of allergic purpura.

What should I do if allergic purpura causes vomiting?

Patients with allergic purpura who experience symptoms of vomiting need to be highly vigilant to determine if it is the gastrointestinal type of allergic purpura. In addition to observing the vomiting, we also need to check for symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea in the patient. Regarding treatment, we need to consider the use of corticosteroids. If the patient’s condition allows, immunosuppressants might also be needed. Dietary considerations are also very important; first, it is essential to maintain a light, liquid diet, avoid spicy or tough foods to manage the vomiting symptoms associated with allergic purpura. (The use of medications should be under the guidance of a professional doctor.)

What are the symptoms of allergic purpura?

The most common clinical manifestations of allergic purpura are bruises on the limbs, black stool, hematuria, and joint pain. It is mainly divided into articular, abdominal, cutaneous, renal, and mixed types. The presence of protein in the urine indicates kidney involvement, which means the condition is most severe. Allergic purpura generally can be alleviated with standard and active treatment, but recurrent attacks affecting the kidneys can lead to persistent purpuric nephritis and proteinuria that do not resolve.

Can allergic purpura be cured?

Allergic purpura is a common vasculitic hypersensitivity response, which means that it is a vascular inflammatory response caused by allergies and is particularly prevalent among adolescents, with a higher occurrence in males. Most cases are associated with infections or allergies, with the most common infections being bacterial, viral, parasitic, and mycoplasmal. Seafood and high protein can lead to allergies, triggering allergic purpura. This condition cannot be cured and tends to recur, but as individuals age and their immune system strengthens, the frequency and likelihood of episodes significantly decrease. However, if kidney damage occurs, which means the development of allergic purpura nephritis, it is crucial to regularly monitor kidney function and urine routine to check for the presence of proteinuria. If necessary, cardiac puncture should be performed, and corticosteroids should be administered.

Can allergic purpura be cured?

Allergic purpura mainly occurs in adolescents and children, often in the spring and autumn seasons, and is typically related to bacterial infections, viral infections, and allergies to medications and foods. The most common clinical symptoms include bruises on both lower limbs, bleeding, black stools, joint pain, and abdominal pain. Upon the appearance of bruises on the lower limbs, it is recommended to complete routine blood tests, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and autoantibody tests to rule out other autoimmune diseases causing skin bruises. During the acute phase, it is necessary to rest in bed, drink plenty of water, and eat a light diet. If there are only simple skin bruises, these may resolve after rest. However, if joint pain, bloody stools, and black stools occur, formal and active treatment is required, as these symptoms will not resolve on their own. Additionally, the presence of blood or protein in urine suggests kidney involvement, indicating that the condition has worsened.
