Allergic reactions can be triggered by a range of factors, including insect bites, medications, foods, and the environment. Reactions can be as mild as a rash or be life-threatening. In order to manage and avoid emergency situations, it is important to identify what you are allergic to and/or what type of asthma you have. Food allergies can be confirmed by performing a skin test and treated by avoidance of that food(s), unless the allergy is severe, in which case it will be necessary to have an injectable epinephrine available at all times in case the food is accidentally consumed. Allergic reactions can also occur in response to bites and stings from insects.

Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the lungs that makes breathing difficult and is often accompanied by attacks of wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath and tightness in the chest. Allergies and asthma often occur together. Two of the most common types of asthma are allergic (extrinsic) asthma and non-allergic (intrinsic) asthma. Allergic asthma is triggered by allergens such as pollen, pet dander, weed, grass, and tree pollens, mold spore, and mold and is more likely to flare up during certain seasons. Non-allergic asthma is triggered by irritants in the air, such as perfumes, cleaning products, air fresheners, cigarette smoke, or burning wood. Additional types of asthma include Cough-Variant Asthma (CVA), which is characterized by a dry and persistent cough, exercise induced asthma (EIA), which occurs during of following physical activity, nocturnal asthma, when asthma symptoms worse at night, and occupational asthma, which is trigged at the workplace by irritants such as fumes, gases, dyes, or dust.
