These days almost every persons has some kind of allergy. Ranging from dust to milk, any possible allergy can be found these days. Now the thing is that these should not hide their allergies. It means, the people around allergic person should know that what kind of allergy the other person is having. If it is known to all, the patient can be helped any time and their allergic attack can be minimized to a greater extent. DO you agree with my statement?

I have allergies but they dont manifest on my skin. I think that a good thing I dont have to suffer from having red spots and hide it. When I have allergies, what happens usually is that I sneeze a lot and would have a hard time breathing. Allergies manifested on your skin is better than allergies that are manifested through symptoms.

I am facing skin allergies occasionally and it is a nuisance. It does not threaten my life or activities much . It appears periodically and with the use of some antibiotics it subsides. I hate visiting a physician generally. But I have to when my own treatment fails to yield the desired result.

I believe if you've got a problem speak up and try to do something about it. I suffer from seasonal allergies. It's worse this year with the high pollen count in my area and all the smog. All I can do is take pills for the symptoms and antihistamines. They help a little but not all the time. I think if you were say allergic to something like milk (like my boyfriend) or nuts it's best to speak up and not hide it. That way someone won't introduce you to that allergen.
