On the same day, the boiled lemon will be eaten, with the whole peel, sweetened according to preference.

How do we know if we are allergic?

Although your immune system is invisible, there are several ways to discover if it has problems or not.

If at this moment you feel well, it means that it is amazing, because at this moment millions of microscopic invaders are just waiting to attack you and make you sick, but they cannot succeed because the immune system is in their way.

If you don’t feel well, if from time to time you have any embarrassment or pain, or if you feel tired, indisposed and lacking energy, do not ignore these sensations, because your immune system is in danger.

Allergy test

What is allergy?
  1. Allergy (Greek: αλλεργία, different reaction) is an abnormal, disproportionate, exaggerated and excessive reaction of the immune system to exogenous antigens that are well tolerated by normal subjects. The medical specialty that deals with the study of diseases in which allergic processes are involved is called Allergology and Immunology (http://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allergie)
  2. ALLERGY, allergies, s.f. (Med.) Special way for the body to react under the action of microbes or foreign substances introduced by various routes (digestive, respiratory, injections, etc.). – From Fr. allergy. Source: DEX’98 (1718) – ana_zecheru
  3. ALLERGY s. (MED.) anaphylaxis, rash, exanthema, (pop.) rash, rash, rash, (reg.) rash, (inv.) rash. Source: Synonyms (171441) – siveco
  4. allergy s. f., art. allergy, g.-d. Art. allergy; pl. allergies, art. allergies Source: DOR (221352) – siveco
  5. Allergy is a state of altered reactivity, with dermatosis of sensitivity to eating foods that the body cannot tolerate or after touching certain substances to which it is sensitive. Sensitization can also occur at very high or low temperatures, to hair dyes or fabric dyes, to certain microbes, fabric fibers, etc.
Skin allergies

When contact with a certain substance (allergen) causes a skin allergy, we can talk about allergic contact dermatitis. This untreated inflammatory condition can lead to severe complications.

Contact dermatitis can be localized on the hands or feet, but it can also be generalized, when it can cover the whole body.

hives

Urticaria is manifested by the appearance of red, raised, itchy plaques of variable sizes that disappear to reappear in other regions. Angioedema, a similar condition, is characterized by the appearance of large edemas in the vicinity of the eyes and lips. Hereditary angioedema is a serious, hereditary condition that causes sudden swelling of the face, arms, legs, hands, external genital organs, digestive tract and respiratory tract.

One in five people suffer from acute urticaria or angioedema during their lifetime. Hereditary angioedema, on the other hand, is much rarer.

In most cases, urticaria and angioedema are harmless and do not leave permanent marks, even without treatment. It consists in the administration of antihistamine drugs. Serious cases of angioedema can cause the patient to suffocate when the edema blocks the airways and leads to loss of consciousness

Urticaria, a multifactorial allergy

Small swellings on the skin that produce pink lesions, with well-defined edges, flat top and accompanied by intense itching, are signs of an allergic condition that affects 15-20% of the general population: urticaria.

Urticaria is a multifactorial condition with dermal or hypodermic localization, characterized by a disseminated or generalized rash consisting of erythematous-edematous, transient (evolution < 24 hours) and pruritic papules, plaques or plaques.

Hives are very common, the post-meal ones being the most common. The skin of any region of the body, scalp, lips, palms and soles can be affected.

Types of urticaria

Acute urticaria persists between 12 and 24 hours and has two forms: allergic, whose triggering causes can be insect stings, peanuts, nuts, crustaceans, medicines, and non-allergic, triggered by medicines or foods containing vasoactive amines.

Chronic urticaria persists for at least 6 weeks, and the evolution of this form is very dangerous because it can cause complications that can be fatal.

Physical and contact urticaria are the most common forms. The physical ones are caused by a physical factor such as pressure, heat, cold, the sun and are manifested in areas pressed by shoes or belts. Generally transient, the consequences of the disease disappear spontaneously.

Contact urticaria results from contact with vegetable, animal and/or chemical substances, being characterized by the papule.

Box: The positive diagnosis of chronic urticaria is established on evolutionary criteria (from 6 weeks to 6 months). The specialist doctor performs the anamnesis and the physical examination, and sometimes skin tests for allergy and desensitization are performed.

CAUSE

Everything that is allergenic can cause urticaria, but the most common causes of urticaria are the following:

medicines – in some children almost all medicines can cause hives;

consumption of eggs, fruits, nuts, peanuts and molluscs (other foods can sometimes cause hives in children, but not in adults);

viral infections; cancer, leukemia; insect bites; autoimmune diseases; dysproteinemias; exposure to cold, heat, aqueous solutions or sunlight;

food dyes and preservatives; contact with animals, especially cats.

Risk factors

allergic terrain (personal history of allergies);

a family history of allergies;

the stress.

Attention: hives are extremely dangerous allergies, in the case of acute ones, for example Quincke’s edema, glottic edema can occur, causing death.

Allergies to medicines

Drug allergies are due to an abnormal reaction of the immune system when the body comes into contact with a drug.

That is why it must be taken into account that any medicine can cause allergic reactions. Thus, a drug administered to treat a certain condition, or improve some symptoms, can cause new symptoms in other places of the body.

Drug allergy can manifest itself in the following forms:

Allergic skin rashes

itching

Urticaria

Swelling of the face

Respiratory difficulties

Low blood pressure

Arrhythmia

SOME MEDICINES can cause anaphylaxis (anaphylactic shock) in certain people,

Anaphylaxis is a violent allergic reaction in which the blood pressure drops suddenly and the airways become blocked, possibly resulting in death.

However, it should be borne in mind that certain manifestations of the body cannot be of an allergic nature:

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea

Muscle pain

DISORDERS

Fatigue

Drowsiness or insomnia

bleeding

Renal or liver failure

States of disorientation

Food allergies

Food allergies represent exaggerated reactions of the immune system, as a result of the ingestion of a food or food additive.

Food allergy should not be confused with food intolerance or food poisoning. They involve reactions of the immune system. In this case, the body reacts to the ingestion of a food (allergen), triggering a series of defense mechanisms.

A food allergy occurs as a reaction to a protein that can be present in peanuts, cow’s milk, fish, etc.

There is no allergy to a carbohydrate or lipid, although there may be intolerance to lactose (a type of carbohydrate normally present in milk).

In the case of an allergy, even the smallest amount of food can cause symptoms.

Allopathic medicine says that there is no curative treatment for food allergies and that the only solution is to avoid the consumption of allergenic foods. However, once the body has been desensitized with the help of AlergiPlant teas, you can gradually consume the food that caused the reaction

Allergy symptoms can be mild or very serious and even potentially fatal: breathing difficulties, loss of consciousness or arrhythmia in case of an anaphylactic shock.

Food allergies can occur at any age, but generally appear before the age of 4. At this age, the digestive and immune systems are not yet matured, being more susceptible to allergies. Some allergies diminish or disappear with time.

The main allergenic foods

Most allergic reactions are caused by certain proteins from:

  • eggs
  • peanuts
  • over
  • seafood (crab, lobster and shrimp)
  • walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, pistachios

In children, the main potentially allergenic foods are:

  • cow’s milk Cow’s milk allergy occurs most frequently in infants, before the introduction of solid foods.
  • some cereals: wheat, barley, oats, rye
  • soy
  • Sesame seeds

Signs and symptoms

The signs of allergy usually appear a few minutes after ingesting the food in question (within a maximum of two hours).

The nature and intensity of the signs varies from one person to another. They may include some of the following symptoms, alone or in combination:

  • skin symptoms: pruritus (itching), eruptions, erythema (redness), swelling of the face, lips
  • respiratory symptoms: wheezing, dyspnea, respiratory distress
  • digestive symptoms: abdominal cramps, diarrhea, colic, nausea and vomiting
  • cardiovascular symptoms: pallor, arterial hypotension, loss of consciousness

Severe allergic reactions – anaphylactic shock – have serious and often fatal manifestations:

  • narrowing of the airways, which causes breathing difficulties
  • the dramatic drop in blood pressure
  • vertigo
  • cardiorespiratory arrest
Allergies to dust

Dust allergy is also called dust mite allergy

Mites are microscopic organisms, related to spiders, that proliferate in warm and humid conditions. Mites are found in many homes, eating dead skin cells and forming true colonies in textile fibers (bed linens, carpets, furniture, fabrics) exposed to dust. Between 100,000 and 10 million mites can be found only in bed linens.

Dead mites as well as their faecal materials mix with the dust and are easily airborne. If you are not allergic to mite residues, they are not dangerous. Otherwise, their inhalation causes allergy symptoms: noisy breathing, sneezing, eye irritation, runny nose.

The treatment of dust mite allergy consists in avoiding them, which means taking measures to reduce the number of dust mites in the home. At the same time, the cure with AlergiPlant tea can help the body to prevent and even eliminate these manifestations

The allergist can also prescribe some medicines or injections against these allergies, following laboratory tests

Allergic reaction

The allergic reaction is the body’s response to a foreign substance perceived as dangerous, called an allergen.

Every day we come into contact by inhaling or ingesting potential allergens, without realizing it, because they are usually harmless. But if the immune system identifies pollen, for example or other harmless substances as dangerous antigens, it can trigger an allergic reaction.

The body becomes allergic – or sensitized – to a certain substance before the first symptoms appear. Most allergies occur in this way. Thus, the first time the person inhales pollen, the person does not even sneeze.

When the allergen enters the nasal mucosa, some cells of the immune system called macrophage cells slowly make their appearance. Macrophage cells neutralize allergen particles, and then associate with some white blood cells (lymphocytes) that defend the body from toxins. At the same time, other white blood cells produce a protein called immunoglobulin E (Ig E), which, in this case, is programmed to react against pollen.

E-type antibodies sensitized to a certain allergen are then associated with mast cells in the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose and throat. Mast cells also exist in the digestive tract and skin. These cells are storage warehouses for chemical substances that cause allergy symptoms, including histamine, responsible for the production of itching and the appearance of edema.

All this happens at the first contact with the allergen. After being sensitized, the person will present allergy symptoms every time he is exposed to the substance in question, which can enter the body through the respiratory, digestive, or skin routes.

At the next contact with pollen, immunoglobulin E is fixed on the allergen in the upper part of the respiratory tract. Each allergen particle is contained between two IgE proteins, thus forming antigenic bridges. The result of the formation of these bridges is the activation of mast cells, which release histamine and other chemicals.

Numerous allergens that enter the body through the respiratory or digestive tract can affect the mast cells in the lower respiratory tract, causing asthma. Other allergens (nickel and latex) cause the mast cells in the skin to synthesize histamine, resulting in rashes or dermatitis.

hives

Urticaria is a multifactorial condition with dermal or hypodermic localization, characterized by a disseminated or generalized rash consisting of erythematous-edematous papules, plaques or plaques, transient (evolution < 24 hours) and pruritic and presents itself in the form of small swellings on the skin that produce pink lesions, with well-defined edges, flat top and accompanied by intense itching

Hives are very common and in general the post-meal ones are the most common. The skin of any region of the body, scalp, lips, palms and soles can be affected.

Types of urticaria

Acute urticaria persists between 12 and 24 hours and has two forms: allergic, whose triggering causes can be insect stings, peanuts, nuts, crustaceans, medicines.

non-allergic, triggered by drugs or foods containing vasoactive amines.

Chronic urticaria persists for at least 6 weeks, and the evolution of this form is very dangerous because it can cause complications that can be fatal.

Physical and contact urticaria are the most common forms. The physical ones are caused by a physical factor such as pressure, heat, cold, the sun and are manifested in areas pressed by shoes or belts. Generally transient, the consequences of the disease disappear spontaneously.

Contact urticaria results from contact with plant, animal and/or chemical substances

CAUSE

All allergens can cause urticaria, but the most common causes of urticaria are the following:

medicines – in some children almost all medicines can cause hives;

consumption of eggs, fruits, nuts, peanuts and molluscs (other foods can sometimes cause hives in children, but not in adults);

viral infections;

cancer, leukemia;

insect bites;

autoimmune diseases;

dysproteinemias;

exposure to cold, heat, or sunlight;

food dyes and preservatives;

contact with animals, especially cats.

Risk factors

allergic terrain (personal history of allergies);

a family history of allergies;

the stress.

Attention: hives are extremely dangerous allergies, in the case of acute ones, for example Quincke’s edema, glottic edema can occur, causing death.

Treatment methods

Urticaria sufferers can also take measures at home before going to the doctor: they must avoid over-the-counter medicines (including aspirin, laxatives, vitamins), hot baths or showers, cold water compresses or local washes to relieve itching and avoid tight underwear – any skin irritation can lead to new episodes.

Medicinal treatment of urticaria contains non-sedating anti-H1 antihistamines (Aerius – the highest potency and has no adverse reactions), ephedrine, epinephrine injections for severe symptoms as general treatment, and antifluiginous mixtures are used as local treatment. There are cases of severe acute urticaria, in their therapy cortisone is introduced by the general route. In the case of chronic urticaria, desensitization methods (vaccines) are applied.

Allergological tests

Allergological tests
Allergological tests consist of performing skin or blood tests to determine which substance or allergen is responsible for triggering allergic reactions.

Skin tests

A small amount of the offending allergen is placed on the skin or subcutaneously to see if an allergic reaction develops. There are 3 types of skin tests:

  • the prick test – this test is performed by placing a drop of a solution containing a possible allergen on the skin and making a few scratches or pricks that allow the solution to penetrate the skin. If there is redness on the skin or a higher itchy area called induration, it means that the person is allergic to the respective allergen. This is a positive reaction
  • intradermal test – during the test, a small amount of allergen solution is injected intradermally. The intradermal test can be performed when a substance does not trigger an allergic reaction to the prick test, but the suspicion of allergy in the case of the tested person still remains valid. The intradermal test is more sensitive than the prick test, but it is more often positive among non-allergic people (false positive result)
  • the patch test – for this test, the allergen solution is placed on a patch that is applied to the skin for 24-72 hours. This test is used to detect skin allergy also called contact dermatitis.

Allergological tests are performed to detect the substances (allergens) that cause an allergic reaction.

Skin tests

The prick test can also be performed for:

  • to identify inhalant (air) allergens such as: seeds, tobacco, dust, feathers and animal hair
  • identification of food allergens (such as eggs, milk, peanuts, nuts, fish, soy, wheat or oysters)
  • to determine if a person is allergic to a drug or insect venom.

risks

Skin tests

The major risk presented by both the prick test and the intradermal test is represented by a serious allergic reaction called anaphylaxis. The symptoms of this serious allergic reaction include: itching, wheezing, swelling of the face or the whole body, dyspnea and hypotension that can cause shock. An anaphylactic reaction can be fatal and is a medical emergency. Emergency medical assistance is always necessary in case of an anaphylactic reaction. However, serious allergic reactions are rare, especially in the case of the prick test. If a skin test is performed using patches and intense itching and pain occurs under any of the patches, remove the patches and notify the doctor immediately.

result

Allergological tests consist of performing a skin or blood test to determine which substance or allergen can trigger an allergic reaction in a person.

Skin tests

Skin tests are performed by exposing the person to suspected allergens and monitoring the occurrence of a subsequent reaction. Skin test results will be available as soon as the test is done.

Interpretation of allergy skin test results:

  • normal (negative) – no elevated reddish area (called induration) appears as a reaction to the application of the allergen
  • abnormal (positive) – a duration determined by the allergen is at least 3 mm higher than a larger negative reaction. The larger the diameter, the more certain it is that the tested person is allergic to the respective allergen.
Blood tests

Allergological tests detect the presence of substances called antibodies in the blood. Blood tests are not as sensitive as skin tests but are often used for people who cannot perform skin tests. The most common type of blood test is the radioimmunoabsorption test (RIA). It is used to measure the blood level of antibodies (called immunoglobulin E or Ig E) that the body produces in response to specific allergens. The level of IgE is often elevated in people with asthma. It is used for people who are not indicated for skin tests, such as people who use different drugs such as antidepressants, which reduce the accuracy of skin tests.

Allergological tests are performed to detect the substances (allergens) that cause an allergic reaction.

Blood test

A blood test of a blood sample can be performed instead of a prick test if a person:

  • has urticaria or another dermatological condition, such as eczema, which makes it more difficult to interpret the results of skin tests
  • you cannot stop taking medicines such as antihistamines or tricyclic antidepressants, which prevent or reduce the reaction to a substance, even if a person is allergic to that substance
  • had a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis)
  • had positive skin tests for many foods. Radioimmunoabsorption tests (RIA) can identify the foods to which the person is most allergic.

risks

Blood tests

There is a very low risk when taking blood from a vein:

  • a small ecchymosis (bruise) may appear at the puncture site. You can reduce the risk of ecchymosis by maintaining pressure on the puncture site for a few minutes after the needle is removed.
  • rarely, the vein can become inflamed after the blood sample has been taken. This condition is called phlebitis and is usually treated by applying warm compresses several times a day
  • continued bleeding can be a problem for people with hematological disorders. Aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin) and other anticoagulant drugs can promote bleeding. If a bleeding disorder or coagulation disorder is present or if anticoagulant drugs are used, the doctor should be notified before performing the venipuncture.

result

Allergological tests consist of performing a skin or blood test to determine which substance or allergen can trigger an allergic reaction in a person.

Blood tests

Blood tests detect the presence of antibodies to different allergens in the blood. Blood allergy test results are usually available within 7 days.

  • normal (negative) – the level of immunoglobulin E (Ig E), a type of antibody, is the same as in people who do not have an allergy
  • abnormal (positive) – the level of immunoglobulin E (Ig E), antibodies for a specific type of allergen present a blood titer 4 times higher than normal.
Methods of preventing allergies

Methods of preventing allergies

Oculo-nasal allergies and bronchial asthma

In the case of people suffering from hay fever or seasonal allergies, it is recommended to limit exposure to allergens outside the home as much as possible. thus it is recommended:

  • keeping the windows closed and using an air conditioner to freshen the air inside the room
  • avoiding leaving the house in the morning hours, when the pollen in the air is at its highest concentration
  • changing and washing clothes after spending a long time outside
  • a shower in the evening before going to bed, with complete hair washing
  • Special attention must be paid during the period when the pollen appears. possibly taking the AllergiPlant before the symptoms appear

Mold allergies

Molds can be a trigger both inside and outside the home. Mold allergy can appear in the spring. Mold grows inside homes, in carpets, in dark corners, in wet areas and in cellars, basements, and garages, especially in the winter months.

Allergies to mites

To avoid such allergies it is recommended:

  • dressing the pillows, mattresses and boxes in which the bed linen is kept with allergen-resistant materials
  • washing sheets at least once a week with hot water, not warm or cold water
  • frequent washing of beds, carpets
  • avoiding animals entering the bedroom, unless they can be washed frequently
  • using a room dehumidifier, so that the humidity is kept below 50%, being a way to reduce allergies to dust mites and mold
  • a member of the family who does not have allergies should frequently vacuum furniture upholstery, mattresses, curtains and carpets in order to eliminate mites and animal hair from the house; it is recommended to use a vacuum cleaner with the best possible filter
  • frequent cleaning of hard surfaces, including frames around paintings, mirrors and windows
  • food must not be left out of the refrigerator overnight and must be kept in tightly closed containers to avoid attracting kitchen cockroaches
  • throw out the trash every night
  • repairing pipes that are broken, because stagnant water can attract kitchen cockroaches
  • in some cases, it is recommended to take medicines to prevent asthma attacks (such as a corticosteroid inhaler or a cromolyn inhaler) before coming into contact with the triggering factors of your allergy.

Eczema and atopic dermatitis:

  • avoiding excessive dehydration of the skin, such as sudden or radical changes in temperature or physical exercises that cause sweating
  • wearing light, soft clothes, made of natural materials that do not irritate the skin
  • avoiding the use of hot water or harsh soaps in body hygiene; liquid or creamier soaps are recommended
  • after body hygiene, it is recommended to dry by dabbing rather than by rubbing, followed by the application of a moisturizing cream while the skin is still a little wet; in the case of frequent hand washing or frequent contact with water due to the profession, using a moisturizing cream after each exposure is very important
  • using a humidifier in winter to prevent the skin from drying out
  • contact dermatitis affects wet skin rather than dry skin; because blisters can develop that can break, the respective area must be kept clean and dry to prevent infections
  • isolation and washing of all worn clothes or equipment used in gardening
  • after exposure to a known allergen during gardening, it is recommended to vigorously wash the skin in the respective area with alcohol, then with water; this is an effective way to clean the skin of the allergy triggers that were in those plants.

Food allergies

If the parents have ever had a food allergy, then their children have a very high risk of developing such an allergy.

Tips for preventing a food allergy in children include:

  • breastfeeding the child until the age of at least one year
  • eliminating foods such as milk, peanuts, or eggs from the mother’s diet during breastfeeding has not been proven to significantly reduce the risk of allergy in the child, although some experts recommend doing so; if breastfeeding is not possible, the pediatrician should be consulted in choosing the best milk formula
  • the introduction of solid foods into the child’s diet after he has reached the age of at least 6 months
  • when new foods are introduced into the child’s diet, start with small portions and only one new food at a time; pay attention to reactions that may occur (such as intestinal gas, vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness or rash) for several days before introducing the next new food
  • avoiding cow’s milk before the age of 1 year
  • avoiding eggs before reaching at least 18 months
  • avoiding peanuts, peanut butter, tree nuts or seafood (eg clams, crayfish, crabs) before the age of 3.

Drug allergies

In the case of a history of side effects or allergic reactions to any medicine, this must be discussed with the doctor who prescribed that treatment. Afterwards, it is recommended to inform all doctors consulted about this allergy. The vast majority of doctors ask this every time they prescribe a prescription, for more safety. Some people with allergies to several antibiotics have a list with them of the antibiotics they can take without problems.

It is recommended to wear a Medic-Alert bracelet or necklace. Anyone who finds you unconscious or unable to speak will immediately know about your allergy. This is especially important if you have ever had anaphylaxis caused by a drug. At the very least, make sure that your spouse or family members know about this allergy.

Allergy to insect venom

When you are out of the house, be careful when you drink anything other than a juice box or when you drink from a container that has not been properly closed. You can drink from a cup instead, so that you can be sure that a bee or a wasp has not fallen there.

If you have been stung or bitten, apply preventive measures. The first reaction to a bee sting or insect venom is usually significant swelling around the sting or bite. If you immediately take an antihistamine, you will minimize this reaction. Do not wait until the eruption becomes larger, because it is more difficult to reduce it after it has increased than to prevent this increase.
