How to know if I have spring allergy?

When there is a history of the family, the possibilities that an individual can develop an allergy are higher. Any substance with which we come into contact, either eating or breathing, can become a allergen or an agent that causes an allergy. The reaction will depend on the response of our immune system. There are diagnostic tests such as the prick-test by which the allergic reaction is detected by the allergic reaction. However, the symptoms previously commented in specific moments of the year are quite clarifying to know if you have allergic allergy or rhinitis.

What really happens during an allergic reaction?

It could be said that allergy is a exacerbated reaction of the immune system. The process is, however, more complex. There are two types of immunity, innate immunity and acquired. The latter, the one we acquire as we expose ourselves to pathogens and their antigens, is the one that intervenes in allergic reactions. Specifically, the so -called TH2 is responsible for the creation of antibodies or its messengers who, in the presence of their related antigens, begin the cascade reaction of the immune system. For some reason that we still do not know, the immune system of some people will recognize harmless elements such as invaders or dangerous. As a consequence, lymphocytes will attack them. The immunoglobulins or antibodies responsible for this reaction will make other cells release chemical substances that cause the inflammation (like the histamine, for example), usually in the nose, lungs, eyes, throat, breasts, ears, stomach lining or skin. The severity of these reactions is variable and can range from the nasal congestion or the itching to the eyes to a dangerous inflammation in the airways called anaphylaxis.

The studies carried out that Agaricus not only promotes an effective response of the immune system, but also facilitates the balance between the response TH1 and TH2 and acts as an antihistamine, partly thanks to certain bioactive compounds that inhibit the release of histamine by mast cells.

Differences between flu and spring allergies

Mild allergic reactions can resemble the common cold, so a differential diagnosis should be made to determine if the symptoms are caused by a pathogen or an allergen. There are several tests that can determine the existence of a spring allergy. One of them is the one that determines the high number of immunoglobulins E (IgE) in the blood. However, the most common is done directly on the skin. For this, different allergens are injected subcutaneously into a certain area of ​​skin of the allergic person. Then, the specialist observes and establishes the diagnosis.
