    ALLERGY

    Grant Kenneth Dumo Amigable
    Hypersensitivity reactions occur when the immune system overreacts to something that would not usually cause an immune response, leading to allergy symptoms. Common signs and symptoms include sneezing, itchy eyes and nose, runny nose, and swelling of the eyes. Treatment involves administering epinephrine if anaphylaxis occurs, providing oxygen, starting IVs, monitoring respiration, and using antihistamines to block immune system chemicals and reduce symptoms. Patients should also avoid allergic triggers and wear medical identification.
