How can allergies affect skin?

A skin allergy happens when the skin becomes irritated. For some reason, one's immune system reacts to some agent which is generally harmless. This allergic reaction may cause rashes, itching, bumps, redness, burning sensation, swelling, hives, etc.

Should I stay out of the sun until my rash or hives are gone?

Exposure to the Sun and harmful UV rays adds up to the irritation and sensitivity your skin already has. It is recommended not to go out during peak hours of sunlight. Shield your skin with cloth and apply sunscreen if it's necessary to go out.

What causes an allergy?

An allergy is caused when our immune system mistakenly reacts to a harmless agent. The immune system keeps producing antibodies that remain alert for that allergen. So, whenever the skin is exposed to that allergen, these antibodies release immune system chemicals that eventually cause allergy. Generally, these allergens are airborne, any food products, insect bites, medications, etc.

Are allergies genetic?

One can't necessarily pass on the allergy genetically but if any parent has numerous environmental allergies, there is a high chance of the child developing some kind of allergic disease.

How long do allergies last on the skin?

The allergic reaction may occur within minutes to hours of being exposed and may last for two to four weeks. It all depends on what type of allergy the person has.

The skin under this drop is carefully pricked using a needle. A red and itchy bump appears on the skin within 15 minutes if the skin is allergic to it, claiming positive results.
