Skin Disease-Allergic Vasculitis
Allergic Vasculitis: reaction that inflames and damages the blood vessels of the skin. It is an extreme reaction to a drug, infection or foreign substance that inflames and damages the blood vessels in the skin.
Causes
Allergic vasculitis is always caused by an allergic reaction. Most patients are over 15 years. Many times, even with a complete medical history, the reason for this condition is not identified.
Symptoms
Spots and patches of purple, which turn pale when pressure is applied.
Skin lesions usually located on legs, buttocks, or trunk.
Blisters on the skin.
Hives (urticaria) that can last for more than 24 hours.
Open sores with dead tissue (necrotic ulcers)
Treatment
The goal of treatment is to reduce inflammation.
Your doctor may prescribe aspirin (aspirin) or corticosteroids to reduce inflammation of blood vessels. (DO NOT give aspirin to children unless otherwise directed by your doctor.)
The practitioner may also prescribe that you stop taking the medication that caused the condition. We should not stop taking any medication without first consulting your doctor.
Prognosis
Usually disappears with time. Sometimes, people have repeated episodes.
Possible complications
Permanent damage to blood vessels or skin with scarring.
Inflammation of blood vessels affects the internal organs.
Call your health care provider at the first symptoms.
Prevention
Avoid medication that is known to cause allergy.
