Nonthrombocytopenic purpura refers to purple-colored patches on the skin that are also known as hemorrhages or blood spots. Spots may appear on organs or mucous membranes, such as the inside of the mouth.
Purpura is a condition that develops when tiny blood vessels in the skin rupture, causing blood to accumulate under the surface. Purple patches on the skin may vary in size from tiny dots to huge areas as a result of this. Purpura patches are usually harmless, but they may signal a more severe medical problem, such as a blood clotting issue.
Severe hemorrhage and scarring may occur when platelet levels are low. Platelets are cells that help blood clot. Low platelet counts may be hereditary or genetic, but they may also be linked to recent malignancy, bone marrow transplants, stem cell transplants, hormone treatments, and drug use.
