People with allergies
have extra-sensitive immune systems which react to normally harmless
substances. Allergens that sometimes produce this reaction include plant
pollen, dust mites, or animal dander; plants such as poison ivy; certain
drugs, such as penicillin; and certain foods such as eggs, milk, nuts, or
seafood.
The tendency to develop a
particular kind of allergy is inherited, and allergies usually begin to
appear in childhood, but they can show up at any age. Common allergies for
infants include food allergies and eczema (patches of dry skin). Older
children and adults may often develop allergic rhinitis (hay fever), a
reaction to an inhaled allergen; common symptoms include nasal congestion,
runny nose, and sneezing. It is best to avoid contact with the allergen, if
feasible. Some people with allergies also have asthma, and allergens are a
common asthma trigger.
Conventional treatment can
help in acute episodes but fails to give long term relief. Homeopathy can
give long term relief in this condition. Homeopathic medicines administered
after detail case study enhances the immunity of the patient and
prevents recurrent episodes and intensity of each episode is reduced
significantly.
