Allergy symptoms vary but may include sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, skin rashes, or digestive issues. Severe allergies can cause swelling, breathing difficulties, or anaphylaxis, requiring immediate medical attention.

Allergy testing helps identify specific triggers through skin prick tests or blood tests. These tests measure your immune system’s response to allergens like pollen, pet dander, mold, or certain foods.

Treatment depends on the type and severity of your allergies. Options include medications (antihistamines, nasal sprays), allergen avoidance strategies, and immunotherapy (allergy shots) for long-term relief.

Yes, allergies can develop at any age, even if you’ve never had them before. Environmental changes, immune system shifts, or repeated exposure to allergens can trigger new allergic reactions.

Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Treatment often includes medications to reduce inflammation, suppress immune overactivity, and manage symptoms effectively.
