Allergies and frequency therapy

Definition:

Allergies are hypersensitivity reactions of the immune system to normally harmless substances known as allergens. These reactions can cause a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild to severe.

Causes:

Allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies harmless substances as a threat and triggers a defence reaction. Common allergens include pollen, house dust mites, animal dander, food, insect venom and certain medications.

Symptoms:

Symptoms of allergies vary depending on the allergen and can include:

Sneezing, runny or stuffy nose.
Itchy, watery eyes.
Skin rashes or hives.
Breathing difficulties, coughing or wheezing.
Gastrointestinal complaints due to food allergies.
In severe cases, anaphylaxis, a life-threatening reaction that requires immediate medical attention, may occur.

Diagnosis:

Allergies are usually diagnosed through a combination of medical history, physical examination and allergy testing. Tests include skin prick tests, blood tests (such as the specific IgE test) and elimination diets for suspected food allergies.

Treatment:

Treatment of allergies includes:

Avoidance of allergens, if possible.
Use of antihistamines, corticosteroids and other medications to relieve symptoms.
Immunotherapy (allergy shots or sublingual tablets) to reduce sensitivity to allergens.

Prevention:

Reducing exposure to known allergens.
Use of air filters and regular cleaning to minimise indoor allergens.
Introducing foods to infants according to current guidelines to reduce the risk of food allergies.

Worth knowing:

Allergies are common worldwide and can affect people of all ages.
The incidence of allergies has increased in recent decades, especially in urban areas.

Research:

Research on allergies focuses on the development of new diagnostic and treatment methods, the role of environmental factors and genetic predispositions, and the prevention of allergies through early intervention.
