Managing PI and its complications requires a comprehensive treatment approach. When PI is properly treated, it can help reduce autoimmune symptoms that occur as a result of the condition. Since autoimmune disorders can be a complication of PI, treating the underlying immune system dysfunction may provide some relief.

However, specific treatments may be needed to address autoimmune complications. Your healthcare team might prescribe medications that help calm the immune system to manage these symptoms alongside your primary PI treatment. It's important to work with your healthcare team to develop a treatment plan that addresses both your PI and any related autoimmune complications. They can help determine the most effective combination of treatments for your specific situation and monitor your response to ensure the best possible outcomes.

For people with PI who experience purpura (purple or red patches caused by bleeding from small blood vessels), it's important to understand that digestive system issues can be a separate but related complication of PI itself, rather than being caused by purpura.

Many people with PI experience digestive tract issues that require specialized care. If you're having digestive symptoms, it would be valuable to discuss this with your healthcare team. A gastroenterologist can help diagnose and treat any digestive system complications. These specialists are specifically trained to manage infections or autoimmune inflammation in the digestive system, as well as other digestive conditions related to PI.
