alerjisi

Alerjisi, also known as allergic rhinitis or hay fever, is a type of allergic reaction that affects the nose and throat. It is triggered by exposure to specific allergens, such as pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Symptoms of alerjisi typically include sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, runny or stuffy nose, and a scratchy or sore throat. These symptoms can range from mild to severe and may occur seasonally, particularly during pollen season, or year-round, depending on the specific allergens involved.

The immune system plays a crucial role in alerjisi. When an individual is exposed to an allergen, their immune system produces antibodies to fight the perceived threat. However, in people with alerjisi, the immune system overreacts to the allergen, leading to the release of histamines and other chemicals that cause the characteristic symptoms.

Treatment for alerjisi often involves a combination of strategies to manage symptoms and prevent future reactions. Over-the-counter medications such as antihistamines, decongestants, and nasal sprays can provide temporary relief. Allergy shots, also known as immunotherapy, can help desensitize the immune system to specific allergens over time. In severe cases, lifestyle changes, such as avoiding known allergens and maintaining a clean environment, may be recommended.
