Whenever I go to clean the carpet, I get sick with
sneezing and coughing. Or even when I go to sweep the house, the same situation
happens. Similarly, my son has a problem with brinjal curry, he cannot eat
brinjal at all, but fried brinjal is his favorite food. So I went to the
doctor. The doctor said – it is our allergy problem.
Experts say that every human body has an immune
system. If for some reason this immune system is disturbed, then one or the
other problem arises, which can also be an allergy.
The body always tries to resist harmful substances
(parasites, fungi, viruses and bacteria). This is called immunity or the
disease prevention process. Sometimes, while doing this work, the body has an
abnormal reaction, which is called an allergy. Allergy can cause
sneezing/coughing, reactions to food and medicines, breathing problems, etc.
In some cases, when a particular thing is touched or
eaten, red bumps or swelling appear on the skin. Although such a problem is
generally known as an allergy, it may not always be so. Doctors say that an
allergy is caused by an excessive sensitivity to a substance. It is a special
type of health problem.
Experts
say - Any rash is not an allergy -
Any rash or pimple on the skin does not mean an
allergy. Skin rashes can occur for various reasons. However, allergic rashes
usually appear when exposed to a specific stimulus, occur repeatedly, and are
itchy. These go away after taking antihistamines.
Although the affected person usually has a history of
allergies to various substances since childhood. However, it has been seen that
many people have their first allergy attack in their lives even at the age of
20 to 30.
Allergy means excessive sensitivity to a particular
substance. This can also lead to serious life-threatening complications. After
taking a medicine, after an insect bite, or even after coming into contact with
flower pollen or objects floating in the air, someone can become unconscious
due to a severe hypersensitivity reaction.
Is
it forbidden to eat beef, shrimp, and hilsa? -
The doctor said - There is no such thing as everyone
being allergic to the same food. So it cannot be simplified like this. It
turned out that some people can eat beef, shrimp, but they get rashes when they
eat duck meat, and some people do not have any problems when they eat raw meat,
but they get itchy when they eat sweet pumpkin. So the triggers are different
for each person.
# People can be sensitive to many different things.
Various medications, cosmetics, fabric fibers, pets, carpets or mattresses -
anything can be your trigger. The person who has the problem has to find out
the reason. Examine yourself and find out where your problem is.
Treatment?
-
Allergies are not completely curable, but they can be
controlled. The idea that there is no other way to treat allergies than to
avoid specific foods, dust, etc. is wrong. There are various types of medicines
to control allergies. If used as per the doctor's advice, it is possible to
remain allergy-free.
Many people think that when allergies occur, they should
only take antihistamine-type medicines, and it is not right to take them at
other times - this is a wrong idea. If the doctor thinks it is necessary, they
can give them medicines throughout the year or throughout the season.
It is important for everyone to have their own
awareness to lead a healthy life.
