This is called allergic Asthma or allergy-induced asthma. Certain substances, such as pollen, dust mites and pet dander, are common triggers. It is asthma that comes on as a result of an allergic attack.

Managing Allergy-Induced Asthma Symptoms?

The exact cause of asthma is unknown, but many people who suffer from this chronic respiratory condition find that their symptoms are triggered by allergies. Allergic reactions like wheezing, coughing, sneezing, watery eyes and itching may occur when the body responds to a common substance in the environment as if it were toxic. The immune system then mounts an attack against the substance, causing an allergic response. When allergy and asthma symptoms overlap, the result can cause a debilitating combination of symptoms. Treatment for allergy-induced asthma must address both the allergies and the asthma to provide effective relief.Identifying Allergy TriggersThe substances that trigger allergy-induced asthma vary from one person to another. Identifying the specific environmental factors that trigger an allergy attack will help prevent serious asthmatic reactions like shortness of breath, chest tightness, coughing and wheezing. During an allergy-induced asthma flare-up, the airways become inflamed and narrow, making breathing difficult. Without prompt treatment, an asthma attack can be fatal.Certain environmental triggers tend to cause allergic reactions in many people. Dust, cigarette smoke, pet dander, dust mites and chemical fumes can trigger allergy-induced asthma. Allergies to certain foods, like seafood or peanuts, or skin allergies may also cause an asthma flare-up.Leading a Healthy Life with AsthmaLeading an active life with allergy-induced asthma isn't always easy. People with severe allergy-induced asthma symptoms may limit their social activities by avoiding situations that expose them to allergenic substances. A comprehensive treatment plan can minimize these symptoms and help people with this chronic condition enjoy healthy, rewarding lives. Avoiding triggers like tobacco smoke, dust, insects and household chemicals may not always be possible, but the right combination of medications may prevent acute attacks.Oral medications or injections that regulate the body's immune response may control allergies and asthma at the same time. Bronchodilators and other fast-acting medications are often prescribed as needed to relieve an acute asthma attack. Doctors can help their patients identify their personal triggers and learn to recognize the signs of a flare-up, so that they can respond quickly to prevent an allergy-induced asthma attack.
