Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the Henoch Schonlein purpura is a clinical condition caused by auto immune phenomenon involving small and medium size arterioles. It is the vasculitis of mesenteric blood vessels, which pause stomach ache and other GI sequences.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
