| Allergy occurs due to a hypersensitive immune system, after repeated allergen exposures on the body. The main symptoms are pain in the eyes, swelling, running nose, hives, sneezing, coughing, etc. The term ‘allergy’ was introduced by the Viennese pediatrician Clemens von Pirke in 1906, when he noticed that some of his patients had symptoms, which might have been caused by certain substances (allergens) from the environment, such as dust, pollen or certain foods. For a long time it was thought that hypersensitivity developed in connection with infringement of function of immunoglobulin E, but it soon became clear that many mechanisms involving various chemicals are caused by the appearance of many symptoms. For a long time
treatment of the disease was unknown. Only a few dozen of thousands known plant species can cause allergies. Pollen-allergen must be available in large quantities in the air. Feeling sick allergies depends on the weather: a hot
summer - the condition worsens, but in windy and rainy - on the contrary, its concentration in the air is reduced. Patients feel well in different ways at different times of day. Especially difficult have them early in the morning because most of the pollen released by plants in the morning. The concentration of pollen in the air, and hence the health status of patients with allergy are dependent on the time of the year. There are three peaks of disease: the first is the spring season, the second - the
summer (June, July), and the third time is the
summer-autumn one. Among the allergens are treated as a substance having a direct effect of allergenic and substances that are capable of strongly potentiating effect of other allergens. Different people by virtue of the genetic features of the immune system have different reactivity with respect to different groups of allergens. Drug
treatment of allergies is rather limited. In some cases, allergic diseases in children are provoked by changes in gut micro flora, i.e. dysbiosis. As for quite a long time finding an effective
treatment for allergies and have not yielded obvious results, we must admit that modern medicine has not yet penetrated the essence of allergies, the process of its emergence and development. Some drugs have the property to block the action of mediators of allergy by preventing activation of the cells and the process of degranulation. Since allergy is not a short time, but chronic, and its origin is not associated with infection, then the methods of
treatment should be sought in ways that could affect the long-term basis. |
