Dr. Angyang Cao

Allergy is a common and widespread condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the immune system overreacts to harmless substances, triggering a range of symptoms that can significantly impact an individual's quality of life. This article aims to provide an overview of allergies, including their causes, symptoms, and management strategies. Allergy is a common immunological condition characterized by an exaggerated immune response to harmless substances known as allergens. This hypersensitivity reaction can manifest in various forms,such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis, food allergies, and drug allergies. Allergy symptoms can range from mild to severe and may affect different parts of the body, including the respiratory system, skin, or gastrointestinal tract. Diagnosis involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and allergy testing to identify specific allergens. Management strategies focus on allergen avoidance, pharmacological interventions, and in some cases, allergen immunotherapy. Understanding allergies and implementing appropriate management strategies are crucial for improving the quality of life for individuals living with allergies. Further research and advancements in allergy prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are needed to address the growing prevalence and impact of allergies worldwide.
