Allergies are immune system reactions to substances like pollen, pet dander, or certain foods. When exposed to allergens, the body releases chemicals causing symptoms like sneezing, itching, or swelling. Severe allergies can lead to anaphylaxis, a life-threatening reaction.
Common signs of allergies include sneezing, itchy eyes, skin rashes, or difficulty breathing.
Expert guidance on allergy prevention includes methods such as allergen avoidance, lifestyle changes, and personalized treatment plans.
Tests like skin prick tests and blood tests are used to identify allergens. Treatments often involve antihistamines, decongestants, or allergy shots to manage symptoms. Personalized care ensures effective allergy management.
