What Are Allergies and Hypersensitivities?

Allergies, also known as hypersensitivities, are abnormal responses of the immune system to certain substances that are typically harmless to most people. These substances, known as allergens, can include foods, pollen, dust, pet dander, and more.

Types of Immune System Reactions

Hypersensitivities are categorised into four main types, based on which components of the immune system are triggered and the speed at which symptoms develop. This classification helps in identifying the underlying cause and guiding appropriate allergy management.
