Allergies
Allergies are a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. They are the body's immune system's response to a foreign substance, such as pollen, dust mites, or food allergies. While allergies can be uncomfortable and even dangerous, they are generally not a long -term threat to a person's health. The first sign of an allergy is often an itchy, swollen tongue or face. Within minutes, the body's release of histamine causes the symptoms to appear, such as hives, difficulty breathing, and itching. Some people may also experience an allergic reaction as a result of an allergen, such as anaphylaxis. Allergies can be categorized into two types: contact allergies and food allergies. Contact allergies occur when the body is exposed to an allergen that it has previously been hypersensitive to, while food allergies are when the body reacts to a food that it has been eating for a long time. While there are many allergies, only a few are life-threatening. The most common food allergies include allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, and seafood , while food allergies to cow's milk, soy, and eggs are also common. If you think you may have allergies, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional. They can perform a blood test to determine if you have an allergy and help you develop an appropriate treatment plan.
