Causes and Risk Factors
Contact with an allergen such as pollen, dust mites, pet fur, certain foods, medicines, stings or plants. Holiday meals and unfamiliar places sometimes uncover an allergy for the first time.
Allergy Explained
Allergies occur when the body’s defences react strongly to a harmless substance like pollen, dust, food, a drug or a sting. Effects range from a runny nose and rash to, rarely, a life-threatening emergency.
How Allergy Feels
- Itchy, red or watery eyes
- Swollen lips, face or eyelids
- Sneezing, runny or blocked nose
- Stomach upset after eating certain foods
- Itchy skin, rash or hives
Avoiding Allergy on Holiday
Avoid known triggers, read food labels, ask restaurants about ingredients and carry your regular allergy medicine when you travel.
How Allergy Is Treated
The doctor asks about the trigger and your symptoms, looks at any rash or swelling on camera, recommends antihistamines or other treatment and prescribes if suitable. Treatment can involve antihistamines, nasal sprays, eye drops, skin creams and, for severe allergy, emergency medicine such as adrenaline.
- Move away from the trigger where you can
- Keep a list of what seems to set it off
- Rinse eyes and nose with clean water or saline
