Allergy
What is Allergy?
Allergies occur when the immune system identifies a substance producing an allergic reaction that does not provoke a reaction in other people. The immune system produces substances called antibodies that detect when a substance or allergen may be harmful by producing inflammation. The most common allergies are hay fever, eczema, food and drug allergies.
Causes
Allergies, stemming from an overactive immune response, manifest as reactions to common substances like pollen, pet dander, foods, and insect stings. Both genetic factors and environmental exposures contribute to susceptibility, resulting in a spectrum of symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to severe manifestations, emphasizing the diverse nature of allergic responses
