ALLERGIES

ALLERGIES 

Exaggerated immune reactions to common substances that are swallowed, injected, or inhaled, or that touch the skin or the eyes, allergies can make an otherwise healthy person feel miserable.

The most common environmental allergens are grass and tree pollens, mold spores, dust mites and animal dander. Eating certain foods and food additives, and being stung by insects can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive people.

Children can inherit a tendency to develop  allergies.
