OVERVIEW

Chronic allergies are a type of reaction that occurs when the immune system overreacts to certain substances. These substances, also known as allergens, can be anything from pollen and dust to certain foods and medications. When the body comes into contact with an allergen, it releases chemicals that cause irritation and inflammation.

Chronic allergies can be extremely debilitating and can have a significant impact on a person’s quality of life. They can also lead to other health problems, such as sinus infections and asthma.

There is no cure for chronic allergies, but there are ways to manage them. With the help of a healthcare professional, you can develop a treatment plan that will help you control your symptoms and live a relatively normal life.

SYMPTOMS

The signs and symptoms of allergies may include the following:

  • Nasal congestion
  • Persistent Sneezing
  • Itching
  • Facial congestion
  • Urticaria

CAUSES

An allergy starts when your immune system mistakes a normally harmless substance for a dangerous invader. The immune system then produces antibodies that remain on the alert for that particular allergen. When you’re exposed to the allergen again, these antibodies can release a number of immune system chemicals, such as histamine, that cause allergy symptoms.
