What Causes Allergies?

During an allergic reaction, the body’s immune system attempts to fight off the irritant (allergen) that is mistakenly identified as harmful—thus causing the symptoms of the reaction. Allergies and allergic reactions are commonly brought on by exposure to irritants like dust mites, insects stings, latex, mold, pet dander, or even something as innocuous as pollen. Some people may also be allergic to certain foods or food groups, as well as some medications like penicillin.

However, seeking proper allergy treatment from a reliable source is recommended to ensure that your allergies remain under control and that your symptoms subside comfortably.

I had to take my son in for an ear infection following a sudden change in temperament at daycare. He was inconsolable the entire car ride but when we got there and by the time we left this care facility he was back to his normal happy go lucky little two year old boy. I highly recommend PhysicianOne Urgent Care.
