fever,swollen and painful crura with dense bleeding points of 2 days. Her urine
study result didn't showed any problems. The RF factor was negative and
C-reaction Prote positive.She was diagnosed irritability purpura. Her families
worried about the side effect of hormone so they brought her to Tuina massage.
We deduced that her illness was caused by the original blood-heat in combination
with stagnation of phlegm. So it's advisable to remove heat from blood and check
upward adverse flow of qi. Selected points:Kneading Xiaotianxin, Push-clearing
Lung Metal, Pushing-clearing Banmen, Kneading Errenshangma, Reverse-arc-pushing

her joints of wrist,waist and neck swelled up in turn and made her felt painful
while being touched. We continued Tuina massage for her and after 15 days all
the symptoms disappeared. Afterwards she continued to take tuina massage for
another 3 days because her diarrhea.
