What is allergy?
An allergy is an overreaction of the immune system to something normally harmless, such as pollen, dust, food, medicines or insect stings. Effects range from a runny nose and rash to, rarely, a life-threatening emergency.
Symptoms of allergy
- Swollen lips, face or eyelids
- Stomach upset after eating certain foods
- Itchy skin, rash or hives
- Itchy, red or watery eyes
- Sneezing, runny or blocked nose
Causes and risk factors
Contact with an allergen such as pollen, dust mites, pet fur, certain foods, medicines, stings or plants. New foods and new surroundings on holiday can bring out allergies you did not know you had.
