Allergic diseases in the 21st century are reaching epidemic proportions. Today, many people are faced with unpleasant allergy symptoms, such as runny nose, itching, redness of the skin, tearing, general weakness, rash, swelling and others. Allergies can cause significant discomfort, but there are ways to help manage the condition.

On July 6, 2012, a new special project called “Allergy” was launched on the LIKAR.INFO portal. In this section you can get answers to almost any questions related to allergic reactions.

However, it is worth noting that if you require a diagnosis and treatment, be sure to consult an allergist. All information presented in the "Allergies" section is intended for informational purposes only.

Here are some useful tips that can help you overcome allergies:

  1. Determine the cause of your allergies: Try to find out what substances or materials you are allergic to. It may be helpful to keep a diary where you note symptoms and possible sources of allergens.

  2. Avoid Contact with Allergens: Once you have identified your allergens, try to avoid contact with them. If you are allergic to pollen, limit your time outdoors during flowering periods. If you are allergic to dust or dust mites, regularly wet clean your home and wash your bed linen at a higher temperature.

  3. Use allergy medications: There are a wide variety of allergy medications that can help relieve allergy symptoms. They are available in various forms, including tablets, sprays, drops and creams. However, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine.

  4. Try immunotherapy: In some cases, your doctor may recommend immunotherapy, which is aimed at gradually getting the body used to the allergen. This may help reduce sensitivity to allergic reactions in the future.

  5. See a Professional: If your allergies are seriously affecting your life and interfering with your daily activities, it is important to see an allergist. A specialist will be able to diagnose, identify specific allergens, develop an individual treatment plan and give recommendations for preventing contact with allergens.

  6. Strengthen your immunity: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and strengthening your immune system can help manage allergic reactions. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, adequate sleep and stress management can improve your overall response to allergens.

  7. Consider alternative methods: Some people find relief from allergic symptoms using alternative methods such as acupuncture, homeopathy or naturopathy. However, it is recommended that you consult with an experienced practitioner before using such methods.

In conclusion, allergies can have a significant impact on your quality of life, but with the right approach and collaboration with your doctor, you can manage your symptoms and make them less bothersome. Do not hesitate to seek help and information from specialized resources, such as the “Allergies” section on the LIKAR.INFO portal. Take care of your health and take steps to combat allergies so you can enjoy a full and comfortable life.
