ALLERGY TESTS

Description

Allergies are the result of the body’s increased exposure and reaction to common substances in the environment or something consumed. These substances are called allergens. Allergies are reactions when allergens enter the body through the skin, by inhalation or by ingestion. Windblown pollen from grasses, trees, weeds, animal hair, house dust; foods; and many other substances are all examples of allergens.

When an allergic person is exposed to an allergen, the immune system produces antibodies. It is the result of this production that causes allergic symptoms:  sneezing, runny nose, headaches, respiratory distress, nausea, hive and others.
