Purpura refers to the appearance of purple or red spots and patches on the skin or mucous membranes, which result from bleeding under the skin. These spots, which can range in size from small petechiae to larger ecchymoses, are due to the leakage of blood vessels into surrounding tissues. Purpura is distinct from other skin changes like bruises in that it is often associated with a variety of underlying conditions and may not necessarily be linked to trauma. The causes of purpura are varied and can include disorders affecting blood clotting or blood vessels. Conditions such as thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) or clotting disorders, such as hemophilia or von Willebrand disease, can lead to purpura due to impaired blood clotting mechanisms. Vascular conditions like vasculitis or certain autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, can cause inflammation and damage to blood vessels, resulting in purpura. Additionally, purpura can be a side effect of medications that affect blood clotting, such as anticoagulants. Infections, such as bacterial infections or sepsis, can also lead to purpura due to septicemia-induced bleeding or clotting abnormalities.
Treatment for purpura involves addressing the underlying cause of the bleeding. For blood disorders, treatment may include medications or therapies to improve platelet function or clotting ability. In cases of vascular or autoimmune conditions, managing the primary disease with immunosuppressive or anti-inflammatory treatments may be necessary. If purpura is due to medication, adjusting or discontinuing the offending drug under medical supervision can help resolve the issue. Ensuring proper management of infections with antibiotics or antivirals, if applicable, is also crucial. Regular monitoring and follow-up with healthcare providers are important to assess the effectiveness of treatment and to make any necessary adjustments to manage purpura and its underlying causes effectively.
