Aoa...How are you all??
A very happy Ramadan Mubarak to everyone. This is the month of blessings. Do good deeds as much as you can.
So let's start with our today's post which is all about allergies it's types and prevention.
Here we have few questions and we have to answer them.
1.
There are so many common types of allergies which includes allergic Rhinitis, food allergies, dust allergies, pet allergy, Latex allergy, mold allergy, Insect sting allergies , Atopic dermatitis
2.
THhe most commonest symptoms of allergies includes itching, congestion, runny nose, swelling, redness.
Itching
When a foreign particle or any allergen enters the body it triggers a chemical which is called histamine which causes our blood vessels to get dilated and smooth muscle to get contract. This lead to itching.
Congestion/ Runny nose
When a allergen enters the nose it releases the chemical histamine which causes the blood vessels to get swollen and produce excess mucus. It is most common symptom of allergic rhinitis.
Swelling and redness
Same above phenomena occur in this case and causes the skin to get red and causes swelling. Swelling occur in any part like tongue, lips, face, throat and other extremities.
3.
We can prevent our self from allergies in different ways by changing our life style, by our dietry modifications , by removing allergens from home, by reducing exposure to pollutants, by avoid smoking, and last but not the least by doing exercises.
4.
The main difference between allergens and cold is that allergies are caused by external particle and cold us caused by any viral infection. Allergies can occur at specific time like in pollen season and cold can occur at any time in year mostly during winter.
So this is my today's post and i hope you all like it.
