Skin Allergies

Understanding Skin Allergies

Skin allergies occur when the immune system reacts to substances (allergens) that come into contact with the skin. These reactions can lead to a range of symptoms, including redness, itching, swelling, and rashes. Common types of skin allergies include:

• Contact Dermatitis: A reaction to direct contact with allergens like soaps, cosmetics, or metals (e.g., nickel).
• Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema): A chronic inflammatory condition characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin.
• Urticaria (Hives): Raised, itchy welts that can appear suddenly and may be triggered by allergens, stress, or certain foods.
• Allergic Reactions to Insect Stings: Reactions that may cause localized swelling or systemic symptoms depending on the severity.
