Best Allergy Specialist in Pakistan

What is Immunology?

Immunology is the study of the immune system. Our Immune system is an integral part of the internal defense system and responsible for defending our body against anything that poses a threat. Since our immune design is created with such perfection, it often triggers against foreign substances that are harmless to our body, such as pollens, molds, dust mites, certain food groups, or strong medications. This is when you will undergo an allergy attack. Allergies occur when the immune system does not recognize a foreign substance and reacts against it. An allergy reaction is typically harmless and subsides with time, however, in some cases, severe allergies can become life-threatening. 

Who is an Allergy Specialist?

An Allergy Specialist in Pakistan is a general physician who has further specialised in treating various allergies. Allergies do not have a strong scientific backup for why people experience allergies which makes it a tricky area of expertise. An allergy specialist plays an important role in assessing, diagnosing, and managing your allergy reactions. Almost 20% of the Pakistani population experience inhalant allergies, with pollen, raw cotton, and thresher being the most prevalent allergy activators. 

When to Consult an Allergy Specialist?

Allergy reactions can be severe and life-threatening, therefore in case of unexplained inflammation, swelling, skin rash, irritation, sneezing, or burning you should immediately rush to an allergy specialist. An allergy specialist is also consulted in case of persistent flu. To determine what kind of allergy reaction you are experiencing it is often advised to seek an allergy specialist before any trigger of a medical emergency. Your allergy specialist will help in relieving the allergy symptoms.
