Allergy is the term we can use for anything which reacts adversely causing various types of symptoms which are not common. The things which cause allergy are called as Allergens.Those may be in the form of Food[milk, chocolates, sea food, cold items like ice creams, citrus.. like lemonades, ghee made, few nuts, shells,Fish…etc], Season,Environment, weather,Animals/Fur, ticks n mites,Metals,Chemicals, Drugs,Dust, Pollution,Soaps, Detergents, Fragrances, Perfumes, Pollen etc….

All these may not be causative factor for one person who is already a sufferer.It varies from person to person.The people who are allergic to certain things in any form may not be allergic to other things,& the Allergens which create any problem in one may not show any effect on the other.It all depends purely on individual sensitivity, Immunity levels.In few, Genetic, hereditary factors also plays important role.

Basically, when a person becomes allergic to certain thing, there will be production of antibodies into the body as a general defence mechanism.But then the reaction b/w the allergens & antibodies will cause increased release of Histamine product which results in causing various symptoms.. like sneezing, watery discharge from Nose,Redness of Eyes, irritation, Itching of Nose n eyes,..these all called as Rhinitis. But when skin becomes the sufferer like form developing Rash,[Urticaria]Redness, small eruptions, any discolouration etc, with itching, burning, irritation like, then it comes under Dermatitis[may be contact dermatitis].

Majority of allergies start from childhood, as then their immunity levels will be comparatively less.{But it does not mean that adults wont get… it all depends on Immunity, susceptibility of the individuals, which will be resulted by their Life style, any other health problems, stress factors etc].

If care was taken in initial stages, then in majority of cases, there will be no more further progress or c/o.s

First we have to observe the causative factors from which we are getting the c/o.If it can be avoidable, better to avoid; if cant, then, its ideal to go for T/t.

As prevention is better than Cure,Keep children distant from Pets,Fur toys, maintaining good hygiene, avoiding unnecessary medication for small small c/o also, application of different creams,Giving nutritious food,[food containing Vit C, B, A] physical exercises, {for infants… breast feeding for minimum 6-9 months will rise up their immunity levels] all will help them to be free from allergies.Practising the Pranayama, [breathing exercises] will give tremendous results in relieving the rhinitis c/o.

If allergies are neglected in initial condition, then they may progress into Sinusitis, Asthma, Eczema, anaphylactic shock etc.

Frequent usage of antihistamines gradually will decrease the effect of medicine & increase the resistance power of the allergens.Moreover, by the use of antihistamine, patient will feel more drowsy, dull, irritable, even more anxious also some times. If once the action of antihistamine diminished, then there will be no other choice except taking steroids, which will show many more side effects on long run of usage.

In Homeopathy, As Cure always based on the selection of symptoms, analysis of a person, there will not be any side effects.
