Allergist "cure allergies nobody in the world can not"

Because of what the child's birth may be allergic? Whether there is allergic to water? At what age is most often manifested allergy?

These and other questions answered chief allergist-immunologist Moscow Health Department Irina Sidorenko .

"Correct.": - Allergies can be transformed? For example, if a patient before all allergy symptoms disappeared with the onset of winter, and remission lasted until August, and now sneezing and a runny nose does not stop throughout the year. Tell me, is there any chance of a cure?

IS .: - If you become a year-round allergies, we can not rule out allergic to house dust. But it happens that this is a sign of autumn hay fever linked to autumn flowering herbs. Please refer to the allergist. We must understand that drugs can not be cured. Generally cure allergies nobody in the world can not. But to achieve long-term remission (improvement or complete disappearance of symptoms) can, by treating allergens. Children can be spontaneous remission of symptoms in adolescence. But after 20 years, the symptoms may return. Therefore worldwide allergens apply different treatment schemes combinations. Contraindications to this method, unfortunately, exist. Accordingly, if there are contraindications, it is necessary to select or symptomatic allergy medications, but it is necessary to contact a specialist allergist.

"Correct.": - Because of what the child's birth may be allergic? Does it happen that a drug which is the mother during pregnancy are recognized in this way?

IS .: - If a child has an allergic reaction, but generally the cause is not in drugs or antibiotics. The issue is that some children have a feature of the immune response, which manifests an allergic reaction. The child should be examined, to identify the major allergens and teach them to live with these allergens. In this case, it has to be connected to a local treatment of the skin: moisturizing creams, atopic steroids. To solve the question of how the treatment is necessary, together with an allergist.

"Correct.": - Whether there is allergic to water? For example, in the sea or river?

IS .: -   case of unexpected allergic reactions. For example, last summer was special. Perhaps some of smog chemicals dissolved in the water. If this is not repeated, the problem will disappear by itself. Many patients last summer intensified allergic reactions. In such situations, it is necessary to take an antihistamine.

"Correct.": - Because of what may be an allergy, especially if it had never happened before?

IS .:   - Sometimes people confuse allergies and runny nose. We can assume that he is allergic. You need to visit an otolaryngologist and allergist. The diagnosis can be established only after consulting a doctor.

By the way, advertising of natural cosmetics - for allergists terrible thing, because any product, if it does have a vegetable ingredients can cause allergy, which can remain for a lifetime. We must be very careful to think before taking any medication, herbal, including!

"Correct.": - What is allergic to scents and how to fight it?

IS .:   - First, you need to get round "odorous" stores. Secondly, it is important how things are at home: Is there sneezing, itchy nose. If so - then be sure to go to the allergist. It seems to me worrying - headache. Migraine and headache may be a manifestation of allergies. You must treat yourself closely and assess their symptoms of stores.

"Correct.": - At what age is most often manifested allergy?

IS .:   - Allergies can begin at any age, although it most often occurs in childhood or young age. In the spring allergy is usually to tree pollen. We need to find a site where there is pollen count level, for example, www.allergology.ru. There, the concentration of pollen major plants and fungi spore today and history data for previous years.

At a certain level of pollen in the air begins to symptoms of allergic rhinitis, conjunctivitis, bronchial asthma. During pollen monitoring if there is a message that there was tree pollen, time for you to take antihistamines. This conditional preventive maintenance, but next year you need to solve the issue of a possible allergen therapy.

If we talk about other levels of prevention, or if the patient plans to child, the child up to 4 months should receive only breast milk, of course, in the absence of allergic reactions to breast milk. This is the only method of preventing allergy. Everything else is on probation. Treatment of allergens - is prevention of exacerbations of allergic diseases. Techniques such as diet without indications do not play any role. It is necessary to consult a doctor to choose the drugs momentary treatment of seasonal allergies, then most important, proven method of treatment - therapy allergens.

Selection of allergens is very large. Heavy patients who are allergic to house dust, animals, birch pollen, etc., we treat in the hospital. Living with allergies can be, if you follow the advice of a doctor. If the patient is registered asthma and require specific medications for asthma, in Moscow, these patients are treated free of charge, getting antiasthmatics residence, regardless of disability.

"Correct.": - Whether there is such that allergens change over time? How to keep track of the process?

IS .: - Allergens not so much changed as accumulate .  Some of the reaction to allergens can weaken with age .  Perhaps during adolescence reduced clinical response in animal allergy .  It happens that a pet reaction subsides, but it should not count, it is best to part with the animals .  Typically, the spectrum is expanded allergens .  If we treat allergen immunotherapy, we interfere with the immune response .  International studies have shown that when expanded range of allergens is not as fast .  Allergy required by the patient's specific efforts .  Get rid of allergies totally and permanently impossible, but to live a full life should any patient using treatment programs and self-control, which was developed jointly with the allergist .  Worldwide allergic patients is becoming more and more .  This is associated with the appearance of food additives, and to the environment, and with changes in power, and using the drug in large quantities is not always reasonably .  For example, many patients with allergy immunomodulators contraindicated .  No need to get carried away with unnecessary medications .  In developed civilized countries a lot of allergy sufferers .

"Correct.": - Is it possible to get rid of allergies or is it for life?

IS .: - If the allergy is manifested in childhood, the baby should be conducted to the allergist. In several milk allergens, the physician will be able to say what kinds of dairy products can give your child, and what - no. Milk allergy often goes with age. Egg allergies can decrease, but it happens much less frequently. Fish - a very complex allergen. A set of classic atopic march - food allergies, asthma, hives. If the child is a Muscovite, we will be able to treat asthma and to achieve good symptom control.

I'm not sure that with this set of allergens, we are able to treat the child allergens. But children should always be treated by an allergist. If you have a problem, or a child living in the area, the site of the Moscow Health Department has a section, how to get into our institution nonresident patients. This issue is solved. But the one-time consultations do not always lead to the desired result. I know a lot of good allergist throughout Russia.

For patients meet community health centers, doctors are very responsible. If the question requires special treatment, I remind you that the district allergist solve it together. I think that we know all complex patients in the city.
