Thrombocytopenic purpura is mainly characterized by symptoms such as recurrent bleeding from the skin and mucous membranes (e.g. petechiae and ecchymoses) and bleeding that does not stop after trauma.
The main function of platelets is to stop bleeding, so when platelets are reduced, the organism will have bleeding. The main manifestation is cutaneous purpura (large petechiae and ecchymoses on the skin and mucous membranes), which is particularly serious when subjected to external impact. Secondary manifestations are nosebleeds, bleeding gums and so on. For women, the main manifestation is increased menstrual flow.
When patients have trauma or surgery, they are prone to bleeding and other manifestations. A few patients may also have internal bleeding, but intracranial bleeding is less common.
If the above symptoms occur, it is necessary to go to the regular hospital in time.
