What is allergy?
Probably there is no more volatile disease than allergic.
One person in blooming some plants does not part with the nose
handkerchief, constantly wiping the deploying eyes (allergic rhinitis,
conjunctivitis) and sneezing; In another, when contacting an allergen on the skin
Red spots arise (urticaria) and severe itching occurs, and even
Heavy manifestations ? Breath disorders (sqinke edema) or even
Bronchial asthma attack. Someone for the time being due to time can
not to know that he has this disease when suddenly develops the most
Serious manifestation of allergies – anaphylactic shock that can
even lead to death.
And as usual, our average
man when he appears for allergy symptoms? Drinking suprastin I
tries to forget that he has some kind of disease instead
in order to go to the doctor and start treatment. Of course, it's nice to feel
yourself with a healthy person, but if you do not take care of this ailment
on time, the disease will progress, and therefore - take all
More aggressive forms.
By the way to say, in our time, cause allergic
The reaction can any substance: dust, insects, latex, household chemicals,
animals, plants, food, medicine, cosmetics, even cold and sunny
rays! There are cases when the husband had an allergy to dandruff wives, and
wives — on sperm husband. Spouses had to part.
However, even if you could remove from our
life all famous allergens would instantly appear. IN
The beginning of the last century horse was the main source of problems for
Allergies. Now the place of animals took cars, and the main scourge
«Industrial» Allergens - for example, substances coming from
Air conditioners… Therefore, a simple admission of suprastin – This is not out. LOVE
man with manifestations of allergies need to undergo a course of surveys and
treatment to find out where the danger comes from and how to deal with it.
Our first assistant – Allergist
Yes,
The most correct thing that can do in such a situation - when
The appearance of any of the above allergy symptoms to contact
Specialist in this disease – Allergist doctor. He will tell O
what is allergic and related illness will answer
Questions and will appoint a number of necessary surveys. Subsequently
The results will help a doctor to choose the right medicine to
Stop the development of this dangerous disease.
What is allergy? This is «answer» of our organism
on contact with alien substance, which is different disproportionately
«stormy» reaction to this substance. And this rapid reaction occurs
Histamine's account - he is thrown into the blood in huge quantities
Contact with an allergen and causes extension of vessels, redness of the skin and
Other bright organism reactions. The more it is allocated in the blood,
Allergy will be stronger.
Imagine that you introduced you to unfamiliar
man who didn't like. What you will do? Quicker
In total, he smith him politely and try more with him
face. If you conduct analogies with allergies, then in this case
the person when meeting with someone unfamiliar gives out inadequate «Protective»
Reaction – Instead of an ordinary handshake begins to shout, run away, beat
in hysterics, breaking furniture and beat the glass. And with such behavior without
bodily damage can not do. Also also an allergic attack
Deals harm the body, and, moreover, heavily affects the quality of life:
After all, if a person, for example, the intolerance of some blooming
plants, then the opportunity to visit a certain locality during their period
There is no bloom. And then almost almost the spring has to
sit at home and move around the city with short ransom.
Therefore, one of the objectives of treatment – Help the body
«learn» adequately react to allergen. It is very important because
that without treating such a strong reaction to some one
The substance can be transformed into the so-called polyvalent
Allergies – such when allergic arises not immediately several substances.
For example, allergic to domestic wool in a few months
Or years without therapy can go into wool allergies, home dust,
pollen plants and paint. Overly to say, as in this case
Complete human life.
In order for this not happened, first of all
It is necessary to establish a specific allergen – substance that
Causes an allergic reaction. Allergens are determined during
special skin samples when a doctor drives under the patient's skin with solutions with
The most common allergens. Depending on the method
They are scarification, intradermal, needle.
The procedure resembles a manta sample (on tuberculosis), only «Buttons»
It turns out much more.
If skin samples for some reason
contraindicated or did not give the result, the doctor will appoint an immunoassay
analysis. During this study, the patient's blood takes and determine
The presence of antibodies to one or another substances.
After the allergen is detected, the doctor will start
treatment – will select the most effective techniques and treatment regimens, and
Effective - specifically under the patient - drugs.
We deal with allergies
First,
that recommends the doctor — Eliminate contact with allergen. The less often without
proper reason to affect the body «annoying»
agent, the less likely the disease will progress.
The method that can be achieved is largely dependent on Allergen.
It may be more frequent room cleaning (if it comes to
home dust) or balanced eating mode with exception
Allergic products - with food allergies.
To prevent repeated allergic seizures
an immunologist allergist will select an individual diet and give the deployed
Recommendations for proper nutrition.
There are several different methods of treating this
Diseases that are selected by a doctor depending on allergen,
severity of symptoms related diseases and other factors.
For example, there is such a method as specific immunotherapy (SIT),
which an allergen is administered to the patient after certain intervals
In very small, gradually rising doses. Thanks to this strict
dispensing does not happen to provoke an allergic attack, but
A gradual decrease in the severity of the manifestations of allergies: in this way
The body is like «Teach» quietly respond to contact with data
Allergen. Sit is well studied and effective, although it can
Apply not in all cases.
Allergy treatment
First
Preparations for the treatment of allergies appeared for quite a long time. Since then, they have since
constantly improving: Efficiency is growing, and the number of side
Effects decrease.
To fixed severity
Allergies include drugs that weaken the action of the main
The culprit of allergies — Histamine. All antihistamines
are divided into 3 generations, and each of these funds takes
Certain niche.
For the treatment of acute manifestations of allergies so far
The first generation preparations are successfully used (Supratin, Tuese,
Pipolfen). Most often they are used as «Ambulance». They are
give a quick effect, but do not act long; In addition, they can not
Apply for long.
First generation funds have soothing and
Snow Motion. So those whose activity requires
concentration, increased attention and rapid decision-making
(for example, when driving a car), it is impossible to apply them.
Antihistamines of the second and third
generations (Claritin, Loratadine, Claster, Cetirizin, Telfast, Zirtek,
SHEMMPREX) have a lot of advantages over the first group of drugs. They are
almost do not act on the nervous system, do not enhance the effect of alcohol and
can be applied by people whose work requires increased attention.
But at the same time select medicines so that they
really brought benefit, better yet, together with a doctor who
It will help to choose the optimal scheme of reception and dose, will send to immunological research, will give recommendations, and if necessary, connect to the treatment of adjacent specialists: according to the latest data, the good effect in the treatment of allergies gives needle and reflexology, su-joke therapy and even psychotherapy (from psychologists have reason to believe that allergies has psychosomatic roots).
So that methods of treatment of this, albeit very
difficult, diseases, quite a lot. The main thing – Do not give illness
develop and start treated it as soon as possible – That is, when
cure her easier.
