How do allergies work?

When an allergen is reintroduced to the body, it triggers a rapid response from the immune system that involves tissue damage, widening of blood vessels, and increased output of inflammatory substances, including histamine. This results in the following:

Sneezing
Congestion

Headaches
Watery eyes
Skin irritations such as hives or eczema
Serious respiratory issues like asthma
This demonstrates just how powerful allergies can be.
