Is allergic purpura difficult to treat?

The difficulty of treating Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) varies depending on the individual case. Generally, the cure rate is usually above 90%, especially for patients with mild symptoms, for whom medication often leads to recovery. For patients with severe disease or those who do not actively seek treatment, complications such as skin and mucosal damage, ulcers, and necrosis may develop, increasing the difficulty of treatment and lowering the likelihood of a full recovery. Henoch-Schönlein purpura is not an incurable disease; the key lies in the severity of the condition and the patient's attitude toward treatment. Therefore, patients should actively cooperate with their physicians, avoid contact with allergens, and maintain healthy lifestyle habits and proper dietary management to improve the chances of recovery.
