20 Best Doctors for Skin Allergy available in Perungudi, Chennai

Skin allergies are usually a result of an allergen that triggers a hypersensitive reaction, for example, allergic dermatitis. Sometimes, it could also be a result of an autoimmune response, such as in atopic dermatitis, where the body's immune cells behave abnormally.

2. Can foods lead to skin allergy?

Certain foods, such as chillies, peppers, eggs, shellfish and oysters, can cause an allergic reaction in an individual, leading to urticaria or even angioedema. People who are allergic to such foods should avoid them.

3. How long will it take to treat skin allergy?

In conditions, such as urticaria or angioedema, persons can get relief almost instantaneously or within a few minutes. Atopic dermatitis can take longer periods ranging from a few months to even several years.

4. Can skin allergy spread from person to person?

No. Skin allergies are either a result of an allergen, or they could be autoimmune in nature and hence are considered non-contagious.

5. What are the treatment options for the management of skin allergy?

Skin allergies are treated using anti-allergy medications, anti-histamines and topical ointments to control the symptoms.
