Allergy is an exaggerated reaction of the immune system to antigens.
Bee stings, insect stings, some food, or pollens are examples of an antigen.
Each antigen triggers specific allergy attack and is manifested distinctly by
each person. It is of frequent occurrence nowadays.
Allergy can be mild or severe in nature. It is mild when its symptoms are not alarming and with minimal intervention and elimination of the allergen you'll be well. But if a person is experiencing breathing difficulty and altered level of consciousness due to an allergic response, he is in severe case of allergy which is a life threatening condition known as anaphylaxis.
One type of allergic reaction is seasonal allergic rhinitis, or hay fever. This is an allergic response to pollen and other microscopic substances that exist at certain times of the year. There are also conditions where allergic rhinitis works out to be perennial, or year round.
Insect stings is another type of allergic reaction, which is very common. The allergic reaction of the insect sting varies from person to person. Some people are not aware of their allergy to insect stings only they found out if they are stung by the insect. First sting produces only a normal sting reaction only the second sting triggers an allergy reaction.
Allergy to latex is another of the types of allergic reactions where the person is allergic to substances made of natural latex. One of the main sources of this allergic reaction is rubber gloves while sometimes, latex that is used in other products like condoms and medical devices can trigger a reaction.
Mold allergy is an allergy that does not have a defined season as mold and fungi grow in all weather and thrive both indoors and outdoors. However some forms of outdoor mold tend to thrive in higher concentrations from spring to late fall. There are some people who suffer from allergy to cosmetics. With cosmetic allergy, you experience skin irritation because of some ingredients in the cosmetics like fragrances and preservatives. The two types of allergic reactions here are irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis.
Sometimes there are person who are allergic to pets and that is not the pet's feather or fur that triggers a reaction. That is an invisible flakes of animal skin called dander that give you sneezing, watery eyes and airless nose. Also some experiencing in food allergies, food like peanuts and jalapenos trigger an allergic reaction.
