Recently, people have increasingly becomehypersensitivity to certain stimuli. Moreover, signs of allergy in adults are found on contact with synthetic substances, as well as with very ordinary products and materials. This condition gives a lot of inconvenience, but to solve this problem is still possible.
The first signs of an allergy are often similar tosymptoms of various diseases. However, in order not to confuse them, it is necessary to conduct a small independent study. Firstly, it is important to remember whether similar symptoms occurred when exposed to a particular stimulus, while in similar conditions or using certain products. For greater certainty, you can take a cure for allergies. If symptoms disappear, then this may indicate the presence of increased sensitivity of the body. But a more complete picture can be obtained by contacting a specialist. That he can conduct tests, the results of which will indicate the presence of allergy or its absence.
Signs of allergies in adults can be eitherlocal and general. The first category includes rhinitis (clear discharge from the nose, swelling, redness), conjunctivitis (the eyes begin to itch, tears flow, swelling of the organs of vision is possible). Often, the respiratory organs also suffer, shortness of breath appears. Some patients have allergic otitis. You can also observe the manifestation of allergies on the face: the skin is covered with spots, rashes, itching. Well, common signs are considered to be shortness of breath, itching, swelling. If all the symptoms are pronounced, then we can talk about anaphylactic shock.
First you need to understand the mechanism of developmentallergic reaction. When a foreign protein enters our bodies, the immune system fights an unexpected guest. At the same time, data on the type and structure of the allergen is stored in its memory. Repeated penetration of a substance causes a violent reaction, which is characterized by its hyperactivity. As a consequence, the signs of allergy in adults. Experts do not name the specific cause of occurrence, but they highlight a number of factors that can lead to the development of the disease. First of all, it is the chemicals around us. We meet her everywhere: in food, in the air, in everyday life. The total use of synthetic means for washing, cleaning does not leave not only harmful, but also useful microorganisms.
Depending on what causedhypersensitivity of the body, there are the following types of the disease. One of the most common is food allergies. Seasonal or so-called spring allergies are also common. The flowering of all kinds of plants, their pollen are able to deliver a lot of problems to people with increased susceptibility.
Since we eat food every day,The development of sensitivity to certain products can significantly impair the quality of life. Allergen can be almost every product. But there is a list of the most common food allergens. These include chicken eggs, chocolate, tomatoes, citrus fruits. Also, people prone to this disease, it is necessary to carefully use honey, milk, strawberries, nuts. Allergic reactions can cause and seafood. Wheat, cereals also belong to potentially unsafe products. Signs of food allergies include the following: nausea, gastrointestinal disorders, various skin reactions, headache, including migraines, inflammatory processes in the large intestine, and gastric mucosa.
If the approach to the treatment of food sensitivityclear and relatively simple, then with seasonal allergies, the situation is different. In the period of active flowering of certain plants, the health of allergy sufferers deteriorates. Spring allergy is manifested by stuffy nose, conjunctivitis, sneezing and other similar symptoms. The main problem is that it is simply impossible to lock yourself in the house and sit there for several weeks. Therefore, to facilitate the state experts prescribe special drugs. In addition, during the period of active distribution of pollen, it is important to adhere to some rules: picnics and long walks in nature are better to be put off until later, after coming from the courtyard, you need to wash and change clothes. Doctors recommend washing clothes as often as possible, because many allergens are deposited on them. Wet cleaning should be done daily.
Sensitivity to certain componentsdrugs - a fairly common allergy. Itching, characteristic signs on the skin, rhinitis, difficulty breathing, fever - this is an incomplete list of symptoms of this disease. At the same time, the drug does not have the desired effect, and its use, even in micro doses, can cause serious consequences. To prevent this condition, all allergic reactions should be noted on the first page of medical records. It is extremely dangerous if you are allergic to drugs to prescribe yourself any treatment yourself, since the reaction can also manifest itself in components of other mixtures and tablets that are similar in structure.
