Depending on the allergens, they can get into your body in many ways. Different kinds of allergens define the main allergy types. However, there are also seasonal and year-round allergies. One of the intriguing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">facts about allergies<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is that they can be life-long, but may be resolved simply by aging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. The severity and symptoms of an allergic reaction can vary widely.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(NHS)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The symptoms of allergic reactions can affect the gastrointestinal tract (stomach cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, bloating), respiratory tract (itchy nose, sneezing, runny nose, cough, throat closing, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath), and skin (itch, rashes, hives, redness), eyes (itchy, watery eyes, red-eye). However, they can also be general (swelling, pain, feeling faint).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Eye symptoms can often be misinterpreted and mislead the diagnosis. Traditional treatments imply the use of antihistamine eye drops. However, in some cases, <a href=\"https:\/\/surehealthremedy.com\/itchy-eyes-natural-home-remedy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">natural remedies<\/a> can help.<\/p>\n<p>Please keep in mind that food sensitivities can often provoke an unwanted immune response, similar to that of food allergies. If your doctor administers testing only to find that you are not suffering from food allergies, but you notice that you still experience a reaction such as hives or fatigue after eating, it is time to look into food sensitivities.

The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CDC allergy statistics<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> show that it often takes several years to establish the diagnosis and determine the responsible allergen(s).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5.

This is the key to preventing allergic reactions, symptoms, and avoiding the need for medicines. The measures include removing the source of allergens both at home and in other places, such as the workplace. The proper cleaning of clothes, hair, and nose can reduce allergic reactions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An allergy management plan can also work toward putting the allergy under control. However, this depends on the type of allergy in question.
