As a medical professional with expertise in dermatology, I can provide you with information on Purpura. Purpura refers to the appearance of purple-red to red-brown spots on the skin due to bleeding under the skin. The duration of Purpura can vary widely depending on the underlying cause. Acute cases may resolve within a few days to a couple of weeks, while chronic cases can persist for months or even longer. Treatment is focused on addressing the cause, which can include infections, medications, or blood disorders.

The illness lasts 4 to 6 weeks in most patients. The rash (purpura) changes from red to purple, becomes rust-coloured and then fades completely. About one-third of those with HSP can get it again, usually within 4 months of the initial illness.
