Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study is to report the clinical effects of an oriental medical treatment on the patient with allergic purpura. Methods A 7-year-old female patient, who was suffering from the purpura on her extremities: swelling and arthralgia on her lower extremities, was treated by herb medicine, acupuncture and pediluvium. Results Treated only with oriental medicine, the patient's allergic symptoms were improved. When we checked back on her condition after 2 months later, she did not show any recurrence of the flares, and regained her health. Conclusions This study shows that oriental medical treatments are effective on allergic purpura, but further clinical studies are needed.
